About this map

Kennard sits at the northern end of this prairie landscape, where the local road network of Co Rd 30 and Co Rd P30 intersects the village center. The map reveals a high concentration of small watercourses and drainage branches that feed into the Big Papillion Cr system, including Falls Br, Boston Br, and Richter Br. This complex hydrology is managed through features like the Papillion Creek Reservoir W-4, illustrating the region's long-standing focus on water control and land use.

Further south, the small community of Washington is situated near the Washington Cr and the border between Washington and Douglas counties. This area is particularly useful for genealogists, as it identifies several historic burial grounds including Kennard Cem, Prairie View Cem, and the German Cem. The southern edge of the map shows the residential expansion near Bennington and the recreational development around Newport Landing Lake.
