Homerville Cem and Fairfield Cem sit at opposite ends of this Gosper County landscape, anchoring a rural district defined by the intricate drainage of Dry Cr. The terrain is characterized by a series of high-plateau farm fields intersected by a dense network of draws and small valleys, many of which have been modified to capture water. This modern water management system is evident in the numerous named impoundments such as Harmon Reservoir, Carlson Reservoir Number 2, and Salisbury Reservoir. A strictly organized grid of country roads, including RD 736 and RD 732, provides access to these isolated hilltops and cemeteries. The presence of the Immanuel Lutheran Cem and Mc Guire Cem further indicates the long-standing community ties in this agricultural pocket of Nebraska.
