2023 Map of Lamoine

About this map

Douglas Creek carves a winding path through the high basalt terrain of the Waterville Plateau in this modern survey of Douglas County. The landscape is defined by the geometric grid of the Public Land Survey System, where agricultural access roads like Waterville N Rd and 9 Rd NW cross the plateau to reach isolated settlements. The community of Lamoine sits at a crossroads in the northern section of the map, while Supplee occupies a position near the southeastern edge, illustrating the dispersed nature of habitation in this dry wheat-growing region. Genealogy researchers will find the Fletcher Cem positioned along the northern township line, a small historical marker in a vast landscape of coulees and draws, including the prominent Douglas Draw. The road network, featuring names like Elevator Rd, hints at the deep-seated grain economy that has long sustained these upland communities.
