1968 Map of Sublette SE

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Gas extraction infrastructure dominates this prairie landscape in the late 1960s, evidenced by a dense network of Gas Well labels and pipelines crisscrossing the High Plains. While the urban expansion of Liberal touches the southwestern corner, the majority of the area is defined by the rural townships of Morris, Seward, and Fargo. This survey provides essential detail for genealogists, identifying localized burial sites such as Springfield Cem, Banner Cem, and the Mennonite Cem. Industrial landmarks including a Compressor Station and a Radio Tower serve as distinct points of reference among the section lines and small depressions that dot the terrain. The presence of a Roadside Park along the highway and a singular Oil Well among the numerous gas sites further illustrates the specific land use and resource management of the era.
