1962 Map of Gibbon South

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Platte River braided channels dominate this Nebraska landscape, creating a series of substantial landforms including Fort Kearney Farm Island and Clark Island. The map documents a critical transportation corridor where the Union Pacific and Burlington Northern railroads parallel the river, serving the established settlements of Gibbon and Lowell. Evidence of the region’s frontier history is preserved in the Old Fort Kearney Military Reservation Bdy and the Old Fort Kearney Road. Local community life is rooted in features like School No 42, St Paul Ch, and the adjacent St Paul Cem. The transition toward modern land use is visible in the establishment of the Windmill State Wildlife Management Area and the Bassway Strip State Wildlife Management Area along the riverbanks.
