About this map

Beaver Creek meanders across this rural section of Boone County in Nebraska, defining a landscape largely shaped by its watercourse and the surrounding topography. The area's mid-century educational structure is represented by the Beaver Valley Sch, a landmark for local families and genealogists tracing rural school district histories. This 1960s-era survey, which incorporates aerial photogrammetric data from 1961 and 1981, illustrates the precise distribution of section lines and unimproved roads that connected agricultural tracts during this period. The terrain reflects the Missouri River Basin development program's interest in the region's hydrology and land use.
