2014 Map of Madison NE

About this map

The Elkhorn River meanders across this Stanton County landscape, carving a wide valley filled with oxbow remnants like Johnson Lake, Loes Lake, and Pillar Lake. This 2014 survey documents a predominantly agricultural region where the section line road grid, including 558 Ave and 834 Rd, defines the movement of people and commerce. The transition from older transit routes is visible where Old Highway 8 meets modern thoroughfares like Ne-24. Genealogists will find several rural burial sites maintained among the fields, specifically Pleasant Run Cem near the banks of Pleasant Run, along with Beltz Cem and Zilmer Cem further east. The southern portion of the map is defined by the drainage of Union Cr and Sand Cr, which feed toward the Greyson Reservoir near the boundary between Madison and Stanton counties.
