1970 Map of Dickens NE

About this map

The rolling Nebraska landscape of Lincoln County appears in this 1970 survey as a series of topographic depressions and scattered agricultural developments. This area, largely defined by the Sellers terrain, shows a sparse distribution of rural infrastructure typical of the high plains. Vital community nodes are clearly identified, including the Community Building and the rural Lone Star Sch, which served as the educational and social anchor for local families. The map also records the technical footprint of the era, noting a prominent Radio Tower and various Well sites across the sections. These features illustrate the intersection of local community life and the infrastructure necessary for land management and communication in a rural setting during the mid-20th century.
