2017 Map of Mead

About this map

The agrarian landscape of Saunders County is anchored by the communities of Mead and Yutan in this modern-era survey. The map reveals a highly structured grid of county roads, such as Co Rd N and Co Rd M, that define the local township and range system. This rural topography is etched by several drainage systems, notably Clear Creek and Johnson Creek, the latter of which feeds into the Johnson Creek Reservoir 22-A. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies several burial grounds including Morning Side Cemetery and Saint James Cemetery, which stand as enduring landmarks of the region's settlement history. The southern reaches of the quadrangle are marked by the presence of Silver Creek and the beginnings of Wahoo Creek, illustrating the intricate network of tributaries that sustain this Nebraska farmland.
