1969 Map of Montezuma SE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Gray County is defined here by the townships of West Hess and East Hess, where the topography is shaped by gradual drainage patterns toward the south. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the northern edge of the map, a vital artery for the region's wheat-based economy during the late 1960s. For genealogists and local historians, the Cave Cem in the eastern portion of the survey serves as a primary landmark of early settlement. The map also documents industrial footprints in this rural stretch, including several Gravel Pit locations and an extensive network of pipelines that traverse the section lines, reflecting the modernization of utility infrastructure in western Kansas.
