2014 Map of Allen

About this map

The town of Allen serves as the central hub of this Northeast Nebraska landscape, where the grid of Dixon County roads meets the diagonal route of Us-20. This survey illustrates the transition from the rolling drainage of Willow Creek and South Creek in the north to the headwaters of several southern-flowing streams. The topography is defined by significant landmarks like Cottonwood Hill and the engineered waters of Dohma Reservoir. For genealogists and local historians, the Springbank Cemetery stands as a focal point for the surrounding township, while the local street plan of Allen—including Clark Street and Ash Street—is preserved in its early 21st-century configuration. The map traces a complex network of waterways, including the descriptively named Rattlesnake Creek and Minnow Creek, which dictate the rural property lines and agricultural layout of the region.
