| A Google Earth street car perspective that I edited and processed through photoshop. This is a view slightly east of due south in Virgil, Kansas. Pioneering Kansas geologists named the North American Virgilian Stage of the latest Pennsylvanian Period (roughly 305 to 299 million years old)--comprised of the Douglas, Shawnee, and Wabaunsee Groups (oldest to youngest)--in honor of representative strata present in Virgil's general vicinity. Latest population for Virgil, Kansas, is 69 folks. |
