2012 Map of Long Island

About this map

Long Island serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Phillips County, situated near the confluence of Elk Cr and Prairie Dog Cr. The town's grid is clearly defined by streets such as Commercial St and Wheeling Ave, featuring a local Po at its heart. The surrounding countryside is organized by a systematic section-line road network, including W Cherokee Rd and W Dakota Rd, which provide access to the expansive farmsteads that characterize the region. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, specifically the Long Island Cem located just north of town and the more distant Vineman Cem to the west. The drainage patterns of Hanson Cr and other small tributaries across the plains illustrate the local topography and water management essential to the area's farming heritage.
