1958 Map of Inman

About this map

The village of Inman serves as the central hub of this Nebraska landscape, situated at a junction where the Chicago and North Western and Burlington Northern railroads converge. The meandering path of the Elkhorn River cuts across the terrain, flanked by the seasonal drainage of Dry Creek. This 1958 survey, with revisions through the mid-1980s, captures a rural economy built on agriculture and local infrastructure, visible in the distribution of rural schoolhouses like School No 17 and School No 5. Communication and industrial footprints are evident through the presence of a TV Tower and several Gravel Pits. The settlement pattern reflects the reliance on rail transport and the natural corridor of the river valley, providing a detailed look at Holt County’s developmental layout during the late twentieth century.
