About this map

The settlement of Lynch serves as the focal point of this Boyd County survey, positioned near the confluence of several vital waterways including Ponca Creek and Whisky Creek. The street grid of the village is clearly defined, with Lynch St and Railroad St framing the central hub where the Lynch Post Office is located. This area represents a classic Great Plains agricultural landscape, where the flat upland plateaus are deeply dissected by the drainage systems of the Niobrara River, which dominates the southern portion of the map.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks such as Highland Cemetery and Pleasant Hill Cemetery, providing a physical record of the community's heritage. To the south, the smaller settlement of Redbird sits near Redbird Creek, while the presence of the Woolf Brothers Airport and Becker Reservoir Number 1 illustrates the modern infrastructure of this rural Nebraska region. The map captures the intricate network of section roads like Sunshine Bottom Rd and Maly Rd that organize the surrounding ranch and farm land.
