Man and Environment in Northeastern Kansas: The Hillsdale Lake Project. Volume 6
The architectural survey of the Hillsdale Reservior area was conducted as part of the cultural resource study of the area. The architectural survey began in May 1975 and was completed in June 1977. The architectural survey of the Hillsdale Reservoir area included sites in rural Miami and Johnson Counties of northeast Kansas. The survey objectives were to record and evaluate all examples of typical and atypical architecture in the Hillsdale Reservoir area. All possible architectural sites indicated on the geological survey maps were investigated. All sites for which no structures were extant are listed in Appendix A. No towns, cemeteries, or churches were located in the survey area. The area surveyed included 72 intact rural farmsteads, 20 houses and abandoned sites. A total of 132 houses were located in the reservoir area. The majority of the houses were frame structures built between 1870 and 1975. This report includes a summation of the vernacular architectural styles seen in the area. This report also includes a description of all the other extant structures in the area including barns, root cellars, chicken coops, granaries, animal sheds, smokehouses, summer kitchens, outhouses, former school houses, fences, and bridges. Two copies of the data forms recorded during this survey were on file with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Kansas City District, and the Archaeology Laboratory, Department of Anthropology, Wichita State University.
