2014 Map of Nehawka

About this map

The confluence of agricultural life and river geography characterizes this southeastern Nebraska landscape, where the village of Nehawka sits along the banks of Weeping Water Cr. Further east, the town of Union serves as a local hub near the Missouri R, which forms the state's eastern boundary. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including the S Br Weeping Water Cr, Wolf Cr, and Big Slough, creating a complex topography of ridges and valleys. Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in the rural Mt Pleasant Cem, Buck Cem, and East Union Cem. This area, split between Cass and Otoe Counties, shows a mature network of named country roads such as Weeping Water Rd and Mt Pleasant Dr that connect established farmsteads and water resources like Schlichtemeier Reservoir.
