2021 Map of Albion East

About this map

Albion lies at the western edge of this 2021 survey, where the prairie landscape of Boone County is carved by the meandering path of Beaver Creek. The terrain is defined by the broad O'Neill Valley and a series of north-south ridges that separate drainage systems like Vorhees Cr. This map documents a contemporary rural layout where section-line roads, such as 240th ST and 270th ST, create a precise grid over the rolling loess hills. Local heritage is anchored by significant sites like Saint Michael Cem and the Boone Cem, located near the small settlement of Boone in the southern portion of the quadrangle. The presence of Choat Reservoir and several named watercourses highlights the importance of water management in this agricultural region, while various minimum maintenance roads suggest the persistent, rural character of the Nebraska countryside.
