1954 Map of Greeley NW

About this map

Homestead and Parnell townships define this rural expanse in the mid-1950s, a landscape shaped by the Nebraska Sandhills. The area is marked by a network of small, localized school districts and rural institutions that supported the dispersed farming community. Notable landmarks include the Amity Sch and its adjacent Amity Cem, along with the Fairview Sch and Fairdale Sch. These social centers appear as essential hubs for a population spread across the shifting terrain of Mount Pleasant and Clear Creek. A significant archaeological feature of the local economy is the Old Railroad Grade running through the eastern sections, indicating an era when rail transport reached further into these townships before being phased out. The map captures the quiet transition of Wheeler and Greeley counties as part of the broader Missouri River Basin development project.
