2014 Map of Murphy

About this map

Agricultural patterns and sections of Hamilton County are meticulously documented in this 2014 survey. The settlement of Aurora sits in the southeast corner of the map, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural landscape where small markers like the Richland Cem, Siloa Cem, and Aurora Cem provide essential anchor points for family history researchers. The land is drained by the Big Blue River and Lincoln Cr, which carve subtle paths through the flat terrain, while the unincorporated community of Murphy occupies a position near the western edge. The rigid road network, including routes like Rodabaugh Rd and numbered section lines, reflects the long-standing rectangular survey system that has shaped Nebraska farming communities for generations. This map captures the region's enduring character as a stable prairie agricultural center.
