1965 Map of Richmond

About this map

Princeton and Richmond serve as the primary hubs of activity in this mid-1960s snapshot of the Kansas prairie, situated along the critical north-south corridor of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Payne Creek and Middle Creek, which cut through the agricultural township boundaries of Homewood, Ohio, and Richmond. Cultural landmarks like the Acorn Community Hall and Central Community Hall reflect the rural social structure of the era, while Mt Olivet Ch stands as a focal point for the local community west of the rail line.
