1954 Map of Gables SW

About this map

HO Ranch and a network of rural schoolhouses define this Garfield County landscape during the mid-1950s. The map illustrates a transitional period for the Nebraska Sandhills, showing the distribution of agricultural infrastructure such as numerous windmills and the scattered rural education system. Notable landmarks include School No 19, School No 24, and the School No 11 (Abandoned) site, reflecting the consolidation or shifting populations of the era. The terrain is dominated by the seasonal drainage of Dry Cedar Creek, which flows through the Dry Cedar and Bryan districts. This survey, part of the Missouri River Basin development program, provides a high-resolution view of land use before modern center-pivot irrigation significantly altered the surface patterns of the region.
