1951 Map of Anselmo NW

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad cuts a sharp diagonal through this remote Nebraska landscape, anchoring the transit corridor between the Dunning and Edith regions. Surveyed in the early 1950s, the terrain is defined by undulating sand hills and the intermittent drainage of Rifle Creek. The map documents a sparse but organized rural infrastructure, where life centered around small educational outposts such as Hoosier Valley Sch in the Hayes area and Grand View Sch further south. These schools served a ranching community that relied on scattered Windmill sites for water in an arid environment. The boundary between Blaine Co and Custer Co is clearly delineated, showing how political lines bisect the rolling topography of the Victoria district.
