2011 Map of Martinsburg

About this map

The village of Martinsburg serves as the focal point of this northeast Nebraska survey, which details a rural landscape defined by an extensive grid of section roads and a complex network of prairie waterways. Located at the intersection of several tributaries including Sand Creek, South Creek, and the Daily Branch, the village is surrounded by significant local landmarks that speak to the area's social history. Genealogists will find four distinct burial grounds documented: Silver Ridge Cemetery, Trinity Cemetery, Martinsburg Cemetery, and Calvary Cemetery. Water management is a prominent feature of the modern terrain, evidenced by structures such as Curry Dam, Aowa Creek Dam 31-1, and Aowa Creek Dam 12-8, which regulate the flows of Aowa Creek and its branches as they carve through the agricultural fields of Dixon County.
