1960 Map of Potter

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Stranger Creek and its many tributaries, including Crooked Creek and Mooney Creek, carve through the rolling terrain where Atchison, Jefferson, and Leavenworth counties meet. This landscape is marked by a legacy of rural education and faith, evidenced by several numbered schoolhouses like School No 74 and School No 17, alongside the Corpus Christi Sch and Corpus Christi Cem complex. The settlements of Potter and Hawthorne are tied together by the remnants of transit history, specifically the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Grade and sections of an Old Railroad Grade. These transport corridors once dictated the growth of small communities like Cummings, while numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Round Mound Cem and Evergreen Cem, provide fixed points for genealogical research in these three-county borderlands.
