1950 Map of Kennedy

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Snake River winds through the heart of this Sandhills landscape, creating a distinct riparian corridor marked by Snake River Falls and the Falls Bridge. Much of the northern terrain is defined by the Nebraska National Forest, while the south-central portion centers on the small community of Kennedy and the adjacent, uniquely named Tiny Town. This 1950 field check captures a transition in rural education and land use, showing localized landmarks like Merry Land Park Sch alongside established cattle operations such as Swanson Ranch and Piercy Ranch. The presence of numerous watering points like Windmill Lake and the marshy Swanson Swamp emphasizes the region's reliance on groundwater for ranching. Several early twentieth-century schools, including School No 68 and School No 90, remain scattered across the townships, providing specific points of interest for genealogists tracing families in the Geria, Cleveland, and Kennedy districts.
