1953 Map of Boelus

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Boelus (Howard City) serves as a primary hub of activity where the Union Pacific railroad tracks trace the northern bank of the Middle Loup River. This 1953 survey, updated with 1970s photogrammetric data, reveals a landscape organized by both water and rail, with the Burlington Northern line cutting through the southern portion near St Michael. The rural character of the region is punctuated by a network of one-room schoolhouses such as School No 25, Boesen Sch, and School No 58, reflecting the early 20th-century educational infrastructure of Central Nebraska.
