1953 Map of Mayer

About this map

Grain and rail infrastructure define this mid-century landscape in Potter County, where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal line across the High Plains. The small community of St Francis serves as a local hub, anchored by its namesake St Francis Cem and the nearby Highland Park School. To the north, a Grain Elevator at the St Francis (Siding) points to the area's agricultural reliance, while isolated industrial sites like a Rendering Plant and several Gravel Pit workings are scattered near the drainage of Bonita Creek. These features, alongside ephemeral water bodies like McGee Lake and Stalanaker Lake, illustrate the intersection of transport and ranching life before the late-century expansion of nearby urban centers.
