About this map

Crofton serves as the primary hub of this 1960s landscape, situated at the border of Knox and Cedar Counties. The town's layout is meticulously detailed, showing the residential grid near the Chicago and North Western rail line and the nearby Crofton Cem. A few miles southeast, the small settlement of Constance is anchored by the St Joseph Sch, representing the rural education and religious hubs that dotted the Nebraska plains during this era. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage, where the headwaters of West Bow Creek, Antelope Creek, and Norwegian Creek carve through the agricultural uplands. Evidence of local industry appears in the form of a Gravel Pit and a regional Pipeline, indicating the infrastructure supporting this farming community at the time of the survey.
