1976 Map of Pence

About this map

Pence stands as the primary settlement in this Western Kansas landscape, situated near the border of Logan Co Scott Co. This 1970s survey captures the region's agricultural and resource-driven character, where the township of Beaver meets the southern reaches of Paxton and Lees. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Chalk Creek and the notable incision of Timber Canyon to the east. Local community landmarks include the Pence Cem and Scott Ch, which serve the surrounding rural population. The economy of the era is evidenced by several Gravel Pit operations and a significant Pipeline corridor cutting across the southern sections, while numerous wells are scattered throughout the territory, marking the ongoing extraction and water management efforts in this part of Scott County.
