About this map

The Winnebago Indian Reservation occupies the southern portion of this landscape, where the Dakota Co Thurston Co boundary line divides the rolling Nebraska terrain. This late-1960s survey documents a predominantly rural agricultural district punctuated by family-named landmarks and essential local institutions. Several small burial grounds, including Taylor Cem, Grove Cem, and Green Valley Cem, are scattered across the landscape, providing vital points of interest for genealogical research. The Chicago and North Western railroad cuts through the northwestern corner, following the path of Pigeon Creek. The hydrology of the area is well-defined by numerous waterways such as West Creek, Jones Creek, and Fiddlers Creek, which weave through the townships of Hubbard, Emerson, Merry, and Winnebago. A distinctive Baird Spring and a local Quarry further characterize the physical geography of this corner of northeast Nebraska.
