About this map

The agricultural plains of the Nebraska interior are captured here in a 2017 survey along the border of Gosper and Phelps Counties. The village of Bertrand anchors the southeastern corner of the sheet, where a dense grid of streets including Montrose Ave and School St suggests a well-established community. To the northwest, the smaller settlement of Smithfield sits near the intersection of W Platte St and Nebraska Ave.

Water management is central to this landscape, as evidenced by the presence of Lateral E-65 cutting horizontally across the terrain to support local farming. Natural drainage remains visible through the winding paths of Plum Cr and Spring Cr, while the inclusion of the Immanuel Cem and Highland Cem provides important points of reference for genealogists tracking local families across these rural townships.
