1950 Map of Midland

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Kansas River and Mud Creek valley define the landscape of this mid-century survey, revealing a region where infrastructure and education were closely tied to the terrain. In the southern half, the Union Pacific railroad and Kansas Turnpike run parallel to the river, supporting the Lawrence Municipal Airport and the settlement of Midland. The rural character of the northern hills is marked by a network of local institutions, including Knowledge Hill Sch, O'Neil Sch, and Mound Sch, each serving the scattered farmsteads of Sarcoxie and Tonganoxie townships.
