1956 Map of Cedar Creek

About this map

The Platte River serves as the dominant boundary between Sarpy and Cass counties, defining a landscape of active river dynamics and agricultural settlement. The 1956 survey, updated with 1969 aerial revisions, reveals a dense network of rural infrastructure, including numerous schoolhouses like Sarpy Center Sch, Bell Sch, and Cullom Sch. These small district schools, along with sites like the Lutheran Ch and Glendale Cem, indicate a well-established farming community organized around the river valley.
