2021 Map of Nehawka

About this map

Nehawka and Union anchor this landscape along the banks and tributaries of Weeping Water Creek, which winds through the agricultural heart of Cass County and into Otoe County. The area's settlement history is etched into the terrain through a series of dedicated burial grounds, including Mount Pleasant Cem, Buck Cem, and the dual East Union Cem and West Union Cem sites. This 2021 survey illustrates how the township lines of t10n r13e and t11n r13e organize the modern road network, where routes like Havelock Ave and Adams St bridge the gaps between drainage features like Big Slough and Wolf Cr. Small reservoirs such as Schlichtemeier Reservoir and Johnson Reservoir provide local water management in a region where the meandering S Br Weeping Water Cr defines much of the southern topography.
