About this map

Wellington serves as the focal point of this Sumner County landscape, anchored by a dense grid of streets including W Harvey Ave and E Lincoln Ave. The map captures a region where agriculture and energy production coexist, evidenced by the numerous petroleum operations scattered across the plains, such as the Wellington Oil Field, Treckell Oil Field, and the Anson Southeast Oil Field in the north. This industrial presence is balanced by the natural drainage of Slate Creek and Spring Creek, which meander through the section lines of the township.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the placement of area burial grounds, including Sumner Memorial Gardens and Prairie Lawn Cemetery on the eastern edge of the city, and Fairview Cemetery near the settlement of Riverdale. The layout of the Wellington Municipal Airport and the small community of Roland further define the local infrastructure, while an extensive network of rural roads like N Perth Rd and S Edwards Rd connect the isolated oil leases to the regional hub.
