2017 Map of Elsmere

About this map

Elsmere serves as the quiet center of this Nebraska Sandhills landscape, situated where the high plains of Cherry County meet the eastern edge of the neighboring jurisdiction. The settlement pattern here is sparse, defined by large tracts of land organized under the Public Land Survey System, including townships t26n r25w and t25n r24w. Local navigation and commerce are anchored by the Post Office and the presence of Elsmere Ave, which provides a primary transit link through the rolling topography. Natural drainage is dictated by the winding path of Goose Creek, which moves through the terrain. For those researching local heritage, the Giles Cemetery stands as a primary point of interest, marking the generational presence of ranching families in this part of the state.
