1972 Map of Gragg Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The rolling Sandhills terrain of the Nebraska panhandle defines this 1970s landscape, where isolated homesteads and cattle operations mark the sparse settlement pattern. The boundary between McPherson and Lincoln Counties crosses the southern portion of the sheet, dividing a region characterized by complex dune formations and seasonal basins. This survey is particularly useful for identifying specific family holdings during the early 1970s, including Gragg Ranch, Stoddard Ranch, and Rundback Ranch. The map captures the infrastructure of these remote operations, showing the network of unimproved roads and fine red dashed lines that indicate fence and field boundaries visible from aerial photographs at the time of the field check. This level of detail provides a rare look at the spatial organization of Nebraska ranching before modern consolidation.
