1951 Map of Ansley NE

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The rolling tablelands of central Nebraska's Custer County are defined here by a network of rural schoolhouses and small family landmarks during the early 1950s. The landscape is divided into named precints such as Douglas Grove and Spring Creek, with much of the human activity concentrated along the meandering courses of Spring Creek and Clear Creek. For genealogists, the map reveals the precise locations of essential community hubs like Mt Custer Sch, Myrtle Sch, and Clear Creek Sch, alongside the Swanson Cem in the northwest. Numerous windmills are scattered across the terrain, indicating the vital importance of groundwater management for the agricultural life in Westerville and Myrtle townships. The topography transitions into the prominent Moody Valley at the southern edge, illustrating the area's drainage towards the larger Missouri River Basin.
