2017 Map of Burchard

About this map

The village of Burchard serves as the primary hub in this corner of Pawnee County, where the agricultural landscape is defined by an intricate network of water management projects. Numerous reservoirs, such as Rock Cr Reservoir 23-A and Plum Cr Reservoir 5-A, dot the drainages of Plum Cr and Rock Cr, illustrating modern soil and water conservation efforts in the Great Plains. These man-made bodies of water, including the significant Burchard Lake, contrast with the traditional grid of section-line roads like 612 Ave and 714 Rd. To the north, the small settlement of Mayberry sits near Mayberry Lake. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies several burial sites, including Burchard Cem, Sacred Heart Cem, and the more isolated Rinne Cem near the northern boundary.
