1952 Map of Burwell NE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Deverre sits within the rural landscape of Garfield County, marking a localized center of settlement in a region defined by large topographic townships. This 1952 survey, updated with aerial data through the late 1970s, reveals a network of country schools that served the dispersed agricultural population, including Kinkaid Sch and Golden Standard Sch. The map illustrates the specialized naming of local terrain areas such as Kinkaid, Willow Springs, and Bryan, providing a rare look at the place-names that shaped the social and geographic identity of this Nebraska prairie. Windmills are scattered throughout the sections, indicating the critical reliance on groundwater management for the area's cattle and farming operations during the mid-20th century.
