1965 Map of Mattox Draw NW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

West Hibbard defines the landscape of this Kearny County region, where the high plains are carved by the intricate drainage networks of James Draw and Mattox Draw. The topography, based on 1964 aerial photography and 1965 field checking, reveals a sparsely populated agricultural environment dominated by section-line tracks and natural contours. Local history and genealogy interest is anchored by Fairview Cem in the northern portion of the map, serving as a primary landmark for researchers. Evidence of early subsurface exploration or resource management appears through labels for a Drill Hole and a Well, indicating the infrastructure necessary for life and industry in this part of Kansas. The map captures the area just before significant modernization, showing a land still defined by its original survey lines and intermittent watercourses.
