2014 Map of Hamlet

About this map

The small village of Hamlet serves as the focal point of this Hayes County landscape, situated where Frenchman Cr and Stinking Water Cr converge. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of these creeks, which carve through the high plains to create features like Corral Canyon. Local infrastructure follows a rigid grid of avenues and roads, including Avenue 354 and Road 733, which connect the outlying agricultural land to the town center. Within the village limits, residential life is organized around Wise St and Maple St, while the Meadow Lawn Cem sits just to the west, providing a genealogical record for families in this corner of Nebraska. This survey illustrates how early twentieth-century highway development, represented by Highway 6A, continues to shape the transport corridor along the creek valley.
