About this map

The confluence of the Little Nemaha River and the winding Missouri River anchor this landscape along the Nebraska-Missouri border. The settlement of Nemaha serves as the central hub of activity, featuring the Nemaha Post Office and nearby Nemaha Cemetery. This region is defined by its network of watercourses, including the long paths of Whisky Run and Jarvis Creek that drain the agricultural uplands.

North of the main town, the curious Happy Hollow and the Swartz Run tributary mark the terrain, while further south, the Penniwell Cemetery stands near St Spur 64 E. The map documents the rural infrastructure of the early twenty-first century, showing how modern roads like Verdon Rd and Cable Ave follow the section lines established by early surveyors. This survey provides a clear view of the shifting riverbanks and drainage patterns that have shaped the development of Nemaha County over generations.
