1962 Map of Lexington East

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Lexington serves as the focal point of this Platte River valley landscape, appearing during a period of established agricultural and civic growth in central Nebraska. The town is densely detailed, highlighting the Courthouse, the Po, and several local campuses including High Sch and St Anns Sch. The surrounding rural landscape in Dawson County is defined by a complex irrigation network, featuring the Beatty Ditch, Berquist Ditch, and Dawson County Drain No 1, which supported the region's fertile farmland. Meandering watercourses like Buffalo Creek and Crooked Creek cut across the gridded section lines, while the Union Pacific railroad corridor provides the primary industrial artery through the valley. This survey also documents numerous rural educational landmarks, such as School No 17 North and the uniquely named Horseshoe Bend Sch, alongside several family and community burial sites like St Anns Cem.
