About this map

The West Fork Big Blue River meanders through this agricultural landscape along the border of Seward and Saline counties. The rural character is defined by a rigorous section-line road grid, including named routes like Rokeby Rd and Denton Rd, which navigate the subtle drainages of Johnson Cr and Sand Cr. For family historians, the presence of the Englehaupt Cem and West Mills Cem provides specific points of interest for tracing early local lineage. Small-scale water management is evident at Weber Reservoir in the southern half of the quadrangle. The land is predominantly organized under the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries for t9n r2e and t8n r2e clearly delineating the traditional midwestern township and range structure.
