2021 Map of Hallam

About this map

The village of Hallam sits at the center of this rural Nebraska landscape, where the grain-growing plains meet the headwaters of the Middle Br Big Nemaha River. This modern survey reveals a highly managed hydrological network, characterized by numerous flood control structures such as Salt Cr Reservoir 13-A and Salt Cr Reservoir 6-4 that dot the tributaries of Salt Creek. For those tracing family history, the map identifies several local burial grounds including Buhrmann Cem and the Hallam Community Cem. To the northwest, the settlement of Kramer remains a distinct marker on the grid of section roads. The terrain is defined by the drainage divide between the Big Blue and Big Nemaha watersheds, with recreational landmarks like Olive Creek Lake and Meadow Lake Number 1 integrated into the agricultural landscape.
