1964 Map of Emmet SE

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Emmet, Grattan, and Fairview townships meet in this mid-1960s study of Holt County, which captures a landscape defined by traditional cattle ranching and prairie water management. The area is characterized by a high concentration of wetlands and depressions, requiring the use of features like the Flowing Well to support livestock in this sandhills environment. The settlement of Schaffer serves as a small local landmark within the township grid, while the presence of a Claypit in the southeastern portion suggests localized resource extraction for building materials or road work. Meandering through the center of the sheet, Dry Creek provides the primary drainage for the surrounding basins in Shamrock and Chambers. The map reflects a period before intensive center-pivot irrigation would significantly alter the visible surface of Nebraska's rangelands.
