Well Records

Information pertaining to water wells in Hamilton and Kearny counties is tabulated on the following pages (tables 20 and 21). The numbers in the first column correspond to the well numbers on the map (pl. 2) and in the tables of analyses (table 13 and table 14). The numbers in the first column that are in parentheses indicate wells from which samples of water were taken for analysis. The wells are listed in order by townships from north to south and by ranges from east to west. Within a township the wells are listed in the order of the sections. The measured depths of water levels are given to the nearest 0.01 foot, whereas reported depths are given only to the nearest foot and are subject to error. Records of two wells in adjoining counties are included (360 and 361).
