1971 Map of White City

About this map

White City serves as a primary hub for this agricultural landscape, anchored by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line. The settlement pattern is defined by traditional township grids, where rural life centered on local landmarks like the Marion Hill Ch and several family or community burial grounds, including White City Cem and Burton Cem. The geography transitions from the northern drainages of West Branch Lyon Creek and Davis Creek toward the southern valley of the Neosho River. Near Parkerville, an Old Railroad Grade hints at the shifting infrastructure of the Kansas prairie during the early 1970s. Industrial activity is visible in several localized Quarries and a Quarry, while the river network, including Parker Creek and Ramseys Creek, carves a distinct path through the Morris County countryside.
