1953 Map of Loup City NW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The agrarian landscape of central Nebraska is captured here in the early 1950s, showing a meticulously organized network of rural education and community landmarks. The map area is defined by the Valley Co Sherman Co boundary and the drainage patterns of several vital waterways, including Mira Creek and its South Branch. The density of rural schoolhouses, such as School No 15 and School No 67, suggests a vibrant farming population prior to the major school consolidations of the later 20th century. Cultural hubs like the Evangelical Ch and the Davis Creek Cem provide essential anchor points for genealogists researching family ties in this transition zone between Vinton, Enterprise, and Logan. The intricate contouring reflects the undulating prairie terrain that shaped the early settlement and road development of this portion of the Missouri River Basin.
