1953 Map of Simpson

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Solomon River meanders across the southern portion of this landscape, defining the agricultural and transport corridors of north-central Kansas during the mid-to-late 20th century. The settlement of Simpson sits near the eastern boundary of Mitchell County, while the town of Asherville is positioned further west, both linked by the Union Pacific railroad line that follows the river valley. The topography is marked by several drainage systems, including West Asher Creek, East Asher Creek, and Lost Creek, which carve through the townships of Lulu, Summit, and Logan.
