About this map

Aloys and its surrounding agricultural landscape are defined by the intricate drainage of the Pebble Creek system in this Cuming County study. The settlement itself sits near the intersection of several section-line roads, notably G Rd and 7th Rd, serving as a central point for the local farming community. To the west, the Saint Peters Cem provides a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing family roots in this rural township.

The terrain is marked by the winding paths of N Br Pebble Cr, the main Pebble Cr, and the S Br Pebble Cr. These waterways create a network of draws and valleys that break up the grid-like precision of the Public Land Survey System boundaries, such as t22n r4e and t22n r5e. The map documents a snapshot of modern Nebraska farm country where traditional land divisions meet the natural flow of the prairie's drainage basins.
