2014 Map of Daykin

About this map

Daykin serves as the primary hub for this agricultural portion of the Nebraska plains, situated at the intersection of Ne-4, Marie St, and Jefferson St. The landscape is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of Little Sandy Creek and the South Fork Swan Creek, which carve gentle relief across the Jefferson and Saline County lines. For those researching local family history, the map preserves the locations of Eureka Cemetery in the north and Saint Johns Cemetery just east of town. To the southeast, the small settlement of Helvey anchors a grid of rural section roads, including 564th Ave and 720th Rd. The area maintains a strict rectilinear road network that reflects the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on Nebraska's rural development.
