1972 Map of Dalton SE

About this map

Rush Creek meanders through this section of Cheyenne County, Nebraska, cutting a distinct valley through the high plains landscape as recorded in 1972. The map reveals a rural economy focused on resource extraction and infrastructure, evidenced by multiple Gravel Pits and an Oil Well scattered across the township lines. Educational and agricultural centers like Grand Prairie Sch serve the surrounding farmsteads, while the small settlement of Spearow and the Miller property anchor the local community. A large Tank Farm in the western portion of the quadrangle highlights the intersection of industrial storage and the expansive open range. This survey provides a precise look at the land use patterns and property divisions at the boundary of Range 48 West and Range 47 West during the early 1970s.
