1969 Map of Susank
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad serves as a critical axis for this Central Kansas landscape, connecting the small grain elevator stops of Susank and Stickney. In the late 1960s, the region was characterized by a dense network of oil wells that dotted the plains between drainage systems like Landon Creek and Sellens Creek. This industrial footprint is layered over a established rural social fabric evidenced by multiple local burial grounds, including Schneider Cemetery and Cross Plains Cemetery, and the Shannon Friends Church. The terrain is partitioned into local districts such as Lincoln Fairfield and Wheatland, reflecting a meticulous organization of the land for both agriculture and petroleum extraction.
