2015 Map of Ferney

About this map

Ferney serves as the central hub of this eastern Brown County landscape, where the flat agricultural terrain is organized by a precise grid of section lines and gravel roads. Located just south of the settlement, Saint Pauls Cem provides a significant touchstone for genealogical research in this rural township. The hydrology of the area is defined by seasonal watercourses and prairie depressions, including the winding Mud Cr in the northeast and the intermittent channel of Dry Run that cuts across the western sections. This 2015 survey reflects a classic Great Plains farming community, where land use is dominated by large-scale cultivation and occasional private infrastructure like the Hite Private Airport. Small natural features such as Pigors Lake punctuate the northern boundary, offering a glimpse into the localized drainage patterns of the region.
