1951 Map of Swede Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

McDowell Creek and its many meandering tributaries define this mid-century landscape where Riley, Geary, and Wabaunsee counties meet. The area is characterized by a dense network of upland drainage basins, including Swede Creek, Deadman Creek, and the West McDowell and East McDowell branches. This 1951 edition reflects a rural Kansas community organized around localized landmarks, where the Ashland School and Briggs School served as focal points for the surrounding farmsteads.
