1950 Map of Mariaville

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The Niobrara River carves a dramatic path through this 1950 survey, serving as the central artery for a landscape defined by ranching and rural education. This map captures the tiny settlement of Mariaville just south of the river, at a time when the region relied on a distributed network of one-room schoolhouses like School No 86, School No 69, and School No 14. The terrain is marked by distinctive family-named landmarks and water sources, including Haughin and King Hill, which stand above the drainages of Simpson Creek and Oak Creek. Genealogists will find particular value in the location of Simpson Cem and the various Windmill sites that indicate the vital infrastructure of these Nebraska sandhills. The convergence of multiple county lines, including Keya Paha, Boyd, and Holt, highlights the area's complex administrative geography.
