2014 Map of Beemer

About this map

The Elkhorn River meanders across this Cuming County landscape, anchoring the settlement of Beemer and the surrounding agricultural plains. This survey documents the intersection of modern transportation via Us-275 with older geographic markers, including the smaller community of Bismarck to the southwest. The grid of rural routes like Indian Trail Rd and River Rd connects several significant local burial sites, providing essential data for genealogical research at Beemer Cem, Rock Creek Cem, Immanuel Cem, and Greenwood Cem. Tributaries such as Plum Cr, Rock Cr, and Fisher Cr define the local drainage patterns, while the presence of Dry Ditch in the northwest corner suggests managed irrigation or drainage efforts common to Nebraska's farming history.
