1953 Map of Loup City SE

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Oak Creek meanders through the central Nebraska plains, defining a landscape of deeply dissected ridges and drainage basins as they appeared in the early 1950s. The village of Ashton serves as the primary hub in the south, situated along the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line that follows the natural grade of the creek valley. This survey reveals a high density of rural infrastructure typical of the era, with schoolhouses such as School No 77, School No 56, and School No 22 distributed across the terrain to serve a dispersed farming population. The mapping of Shaupps Sch and various section-line roads illustrates the systematic grid of the American West superimposed upon the winding path of Turkey Creek.
