County: government survey maps from the United States General
Land Office surveys, chiefly dating from the 1860s; and plat maps

Trails: Western Trails brings together archives, historical
societies, libraries and museums from Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska and
Wyoming in a collaborative digitization project. Our contribution

Department of Special Collections, the Wichita Public Library Local
