1894 Map of Ness

USGS Topo · Published 1924

About this map

Ness City and Jetmore anchor this late 19th-century survey of western Kansas, where the prairie landscape is defined by the rigid grid of townships and the lifeblood of its waterways. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad cuts through the northern and southern sectors, establishing a corridor for development that connected small hubs like Bazine and Marena to wider markets. Away from the rails, the map preserves the locations of early outposts like Schoharie P.O. and Sidney, which were critical nodes for homesteaders in the 1880s.
