1972 Map of Macksville
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Macksville serves as the primary hub of this Stafford County landscape, where the grid of a settled Kansas town meets the sprawling energy and agricultural interests of the early 1970s. The town's infrastructure is clearly defined, from the Water Tank and Sewage Disposal to the Township Cem on the eastern edge. Industry is heavily represented by the Macksville Oil and Gas Field and the Kraeger Oil and Field, which dot the terrain with numerous wells and pipelines alongside water bodies like Wild Horse Creek and Spring Creek. Transport and commerce are tied to the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which parallels the main highway through town, and the Smith Landing Strip to the north. Smaller settlements like Dillwyn and expansive areas like Richland and Farmington show the distribution of ranching and oil production across the plains.
