2021 Map of Avoca

About this map

The village of Avoca sits at the southwestern edge of this landscape, nestled near the headwaters of the S Br Weeping Water Cr. This rural territory along the border of Cass and Otoe counties is defined by an intricate network of drainage, including Flood Cr, Jordan Cr, and the main stem of Weeping Water Cr. The agricultural character of the region is evident in the grid-based road system, with family-named landmarks like Browns Airport and the Saint Johns Cem serving as significant points for genealogical research. The map captures the subtle topography of the Nebraska plains, shaped by water management features such as Ahrens Reservoir and Bond Reservoir. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure at the start of the 2020s, showing how legacy farm roads like Weeping Water Rd and Van Dorn St continue to organize the prairie.
