About this map

The Calamus River and its South Fork meander through this Nebraska Sandhills landscape, creating a complex network of wetlands and seasonal waters like Moon Lake Marsh and Clapper Marsh. This mid-century survey illustrates a ranch-based economy where homesteads and property lines are defined by family-named holdings such as the O'Hara Ranch, Wrage Ranch, and Enders Ranch. The distribution of rural education is clearly visible through a system of numbered and named schoolhouses, including School No 112, North Wrage Sch, and Enders Sch, which served the dispersed population across the Cherry and Brown County line.
