2011 Map of Murdock

About this map

Murdock and the smaller settlement of Wabash anchor this agricultural landscape in Cass County, where the township grid is deeply etched into the Nebraska prairie. This 2011 survey illustrates a region defined by its watercourses, notably Weeping Water Creek and its many tributaries like Callahan Creek and Beaver Creek that cut across the rolling fields. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, documenting several distinct burial grounds including Hill Cemetery in the northeast and Wabash Cemetery to the south. Local commerce remains centered around the Murdock Post Office, while the northern reach features Pawnee Lake and the Wiles Dam. The network of section-line roads, such as Alvo Rd and Mynard Rd, underscores the persistence of the historic land ordinance system in this quiet corner of the state.
