1951 Map of Anselmo NE

About this map

The Middle Loup River winds through the northeastern corner of this Custer County landscape, carving a distinct valley through the Nebraska Sandhills. Surveyed in the early 1950s as part of the Missouri River Basin development program, the area is defined by the townships of Victoria and Edith. This agricultural and ranching terrain is dotted with numerous Windmills, essential for life in the high plains. The map reveals a network of rural education, identifying the Happy Hollow Sch, Cooperville Sch, and Windy Point Sch distributed across the sections. Topographical interest is found in the southeastern corner, where Cedar Canyon and Canyon break the rolling ground, leading toward the Victoria Springs Cem.
