2014 Map of Byron

About this map

The village of Byron anchors the southern edge of this survey at the state line where Nebraska meets Kansas. Situated in the Republican River valley region, the landscape is defined by an orderly grid of section roads including Road A through Road J, which segment the agricultural terrain between the Nuckolls and Thayer county boundaries. Water management is a visible priority across the prairie, evidenced by numerous named impoundments such as Eggers Reservoir, Hofts Reservoir, and Fintel Reservoir, which capture runoff from drainage systems like Spring Cr and Otter Cr. For genealogists, the map identifies local burial sites including Zion Cem in the north and two locations for Saint Pauls Cem near the town site. The intersection of Ne-8 and local thoroughfares like N Kansas Ave and Warren St illustrates the infrastructure supporting this border community.
