2021 Map of Ceresco

About this map

Ceresco serves as the primary hub of this eastern Nebraska landscape, situated near the boundary where Saunders Co and Lancaster Co meet. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses and small reservoirs, including Palm Reservoir and Marshalek Reservoir, which support the surrounding agricultural tracts. Historically significant sites are preserved through the inclusion of several local burial grounds, such as Fridhem Cem, Rock Creek Cem, and Saint Mary and Saint Patrick Cem. These landmarks, along with established drainage systems like N Fork Rock Cr and Ash Hollow Cr, illustrate a rural community where land use is intimately tied to the local hydrology. The road network, characterized by routes like Ashland Rd and Agnew Rd, connects these scattered homesteads and communal sites, reflecting the enduring grid-based settlement pattern of the region.
