2021 Map of Farwell

About this map

The village of Farwell serves as the primary settlement in this section of Howard County, where the agricultural landscape is shaped by the drainages of Turkey Creek and Cow Cr. This modern survey reveals a countryside deeply connected to its heritage through its diverse denominational and community burial grounds, including the Danish Cem near town and Saint Anthony Cem to the south. Further out, the rural character is maintained by landmarks like Kelso Cem and Ebenezer Cem, while the local hydrology is managed through several catchment features such as the Farwell South Reservoir, Christensen Reservoir, and Krogh Reservoir. The grid of section roads, from Salem Rd to Yutan Rd, underscores the persistent land-use patterns of the Nebraska plains, where seasonal waterways like Dry Cr and Deer Cr carve through the open terrain.
