About this map

Deeply incised drainages carve through Frontier County in the mid-1950s, revealing a landscape defined by the townships of North Star, Sherman, Harrison, and Knowles. This terrain, mapped as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, shows a rural Nebraska community in transition. While North Star Sch and Hanthorn Sch remained active at the time of the survey, the high number of shuttered institutions like Sunny Plains Sch, Walnut Hill Sch, and Plainview Sch suggests a consolidation of rural life and shifting settlement patterns.
