2017 Map of Heartwell

About this map

Heartwell serves as the primary hub of this Kearney County landscape, situated along a grid of section roads that define the agricultural character of the Nebraska plains. The settlement patterns follow the intersection of local routes like Main St and N Railway St, while the small community of Koller sits to the southwest. This area illustrates the critical role of water management in the region, featuring the Adams County Canal and natural drainage systems like Cottonwood Cr and Sand Cr. For family historians, the map identifies local burial grounds including Eaton Cem and Holy Family Cem, which are key landmarks for tracing the area's rural heritage. The infrastructure, consisting of a precise network from T Rd down to N Rd, reflects the organized expansion of farming and transportation across the central Nebraska territory.
