1962 Map of Gibbon South

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The braided channels of the Platte River dominate this 1962 survey of the Nebraska plains, creating a complex geography of large landmasses like Clark Island and Elm Island. To the north, the town of Gibbon is situated along the Union Pacific railroad and the Wood River, while the southern reaches of the map show the settlement of Lowell positioned near the Chicago Burlington and Quincy tracks. The landscape is marked by the historical footprint of the Fort Kearney Military Reservation Bdy and the Old Fort Kearney road. Local civic life is evidenced by St Paul Ch, its nearby St Paul Cem, and rural educational outposts such as School No 22. The map also captures early interstate development with the inclusion of Interstate 80, illustrating the transition of Nebraska's primary transport corridors from rail and river to modern highway systems.
