About this map

Crofton anchors the northeastern corner of this rural Knox County landscape, where the residential grid meets the section lines of the surrounding countryside. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of Beaver Cr in the north and W Bow Cr in the southeast, which carve into the rolling Nebraska plains. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of local burial sites, including Saint Rose Cem just south of the Crofton outskirts and the more secluded Swede Cem situated to the west. A dense network of section-line roads, such as 891st Rd and 883rd Rd, provides a clear view of the agricultural land divisions and farmstead placements that have structured this region for generations.
