About this map

Pottawatomie Creek and its many tributaries define the agricultural character of this eastern Kansas landscape along the border of Coffey and Anderson counties. The rural area is divided into historical townships such as Pottawatomie, Rock Creek, and Star, reflecting the early administrative patterns of the Great Plains. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the small community of Wells, while the presence of a Landing Strip and a modern Pipeline suggests the mid-century integration of traditional farming with new infrastructure. The terrain is marked by a dense network of watercourses including Rock Creek, Elm Creek, and Long Creek, which together create a complex drainage system across the prairie. This map provides a clear view of the rural homesteads and township lines as they existed in the early 1970s.
