About this map

Sheridan County ranchland and rural districts are recorded here during the late 1960s, showing a landscape defined by sectional township boundaries and isolated community landmarks. The map documents the intersections of the Milan, Clinton, Hull, and Extension districts. These administrative divisions once supported a network of local institutions, evidenced by the presence of Milan Sch and Hillview Sch, which served as anchors for the surrounding farming families.

Drainage in this portion of the Nebraska panhandle is characterized by the winding path of Larrahbee Creek in the northern reaches. For genealogists and local historians, the Amity Cem provides a specific point of reference for early settlers in the region. The map reflects a period before significant modern consolidation, preserving the locations of these small-scale educational and civic sites against the backdrop of the high plains.
