1974 Map of Orlando West

About this map

The boundary between Noble and Logan counties centers this mid-1970s landscape, where the settlement of Orlando sits at the intersection of rural agriculture and heavy industry. The land is marked by an extensive network of petroleum extraction, including a prominent Oil Field and numerous gas and oil wells. Grounding the community's history are several established landmarks, from the Potter Ch to a series of rural burial grounds like German Cem and Mt Zion Cem. Transportation and infrastructure are defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which parallels the county line near the Sewage Disp Ponds. Waterways such as Beaver Creek and Warren Cr drain the terrain, providing natural landmarks among the industrial development of the Marshall, Lowe, and Gas Field regions.
