1978 Map of St. Francis 3 SW

About this map

Neville Ch stands as a lonely landmark in this high plains landscape on the border of Cheyenne and Sherman counties during the late 1970s. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral drainages of Little Beaver Creek and Battle Creek, which carve subtle valleys across the townships of Benkelman, Grant, and Jaqua. This survey captures the rural character of western Kansas at a time when industrial activity was largely limited to scattered wells and a small Quarry in the northwest. The map’s reliance on 1974 photogrammetric methods highlights a transition to modern cartographic precision while documenting the persistent section-line road network that dictates the area's geometry. For those researching the geography of the Kansas-Colorado borderlands, this record provides an exact placement of local structures and rural property boundaries.
