1954 Map of Greeley NW

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The boundary between Wheeler Co and Greeley Co bisects a landscape defined by sand hills and subtle depressions. This 1954 topographic record, updated through 1985, illustrates a sparsely settled region where human presence is marked by isolated landmarks and transportation remnants. A notable feature of the local topography is the Old Railroad Grade, which angles across the eastern sections, signaling a shift in the local transit network as rails gave way to the surrounding prairie. For those researching family history or early land use in the area, the inclusion of Amity Cem provides a specific point of reference in an otherwise open terrain. The map reflects the agrarian character of the Nebraska sandhills region during the mid-20th century, highlighting the enduring spatial patterns of the Great Plains.
