1966 Map of Ness City
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
Ness City serves as the focal point of this 1960s landscape, situated at the confluence where the North Fork Walnut Creek and other tributaries join the main Walnut Creek channel. The mid-century development of the town is clearly visible, featuring a local Ness City Airfield, a Drive-in Theater, and a Sewage Disposal plant, reflecting the infrastructure of a growing Kansas county seat. Transport and industry define the area's layout, with the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad running east-to-west across the plains, while numerous Oil Wells and Gravel Pits are scattered throughout the surrounding townships. Genealogists will find the locations of several burial sites, including Sacred Heart Cem, Chenoworth Cem, and Michler Cem, providing essential keys for family research in Forrester and Franklin townships.
