About this map

Oakley sits at the southern edge of this West Kansas landscape, serving as a hub where the Union Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal path across the High Plains. This 1979 survey captures the town's local infrastructure, including the Fairground, Hospital, and a municipal Park. Beyond the town limits, the geography is defined by the headwaters of the Saline River system, specifically the North Fork Saline River and South Fork Saline River. These waterways carve distinct drainage patterns through the townships of South Randall and Grinnell. Genealogists will find the Oakley Cem and St Josephs Cem clearly marked near the Thomas and Logan County line. The map also documents numerous Gravel Pits scattered throughout the river breaks, indicating the local reliance on aggregate extraction for road and rail maintenance during this period.
