1958 Map of Tribbey

About this map

Tribbey and Trousdale anchor this rural landscape in Pottawatomie County during the mid-to-late 20th century. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Council Creek, Salt Creek, and Cottonwood Creek, which cut through the townships of Burnett and Eason. A notable historical detail is the presence of a railroad grade passing through the eastern portion of the area, suggesting a transport corridor that once connected these agricultural communities. Local history is deeply embedded in the land through numerous rural burial sites and places of worship, such as Friendship Cem, Old Moratt Cem, Martin Hill Cem, and the Council Creek Ch. The inclusion of several Oil Wells and a pipeline reflects the regional energy industry of the 1950s, while the 1975 revisions highlight subtle shifts in the landscape and water features such as the pond near Trousdale.
