1966 Map of Burr
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Burr sits at the center of this mid-1960s agricultural landscape, where the Missouri Pacific railroad follows the valley of the South Fork Little Nemaha River. This topography is defined by its drainages, including Muddy Creek, Little Muddy Cr, and Saunders Creek, which cut through the townships of South Palmyra, South Russell, South Branch, and Sterling. Local family history and genealogy are anchored by several rural burial grounds such as Dughman Cem, Hope Cem, and Wilson Cem, alongside the Hopewell Ch. The map captures the infrastructure of the era, from the local Sewage Disposal Ponds and a Sandpit to a significant Pipeline corridor. The border between Otoe County and Johnson County runs through the southern portion of the sheet, dividing these farming communities.
