2015 Map of Aurora Center

About this map

The small settlement of Aurora Center serves as the focal point of this rural prairie landscape in Aurora County. The township is characterized by a strict section-line grid of roads, including 381st Ave and 266th St, which navigate the subtle topography of the Great Plains. Water features are concentrated in the northern sections, notably the elongated Horse Shoe Lake and Pleasant Lake, which punctuate the agricultural expanse. The drainage of the E Fork Platte Cr meanders across the central portion of the map, illustrating the natural watercourses that predate the systematic road network. Local history is anchored by the presence of the Quaker Cem and the Aurora Center Cem, providing vital points of reference for genealogists and researchers studying the early families of Truro Township.
