2011 Map of Newman Grove

About this map

Newman Grove sits at the northern edge of this agricultural landscape, anchored by the Newman Grove Post Office and the local Hope Cemetery. The town's grid is bounded by Railroad Ave, reflecting its historic connection to the rail corridors that shaped the settlement patterns of Madison County. South of town, the landscape is defined by the winding course of Looking Glass Creek, which meanders through a structured network of section roads like Co Line Rd and 400 St. Near the southeastern corner of the map, the small settlement of Rosenburg marks an intersection in the rural grid, while Shell Creek flows through the northeastern corner. The precision of the grid-line roads, including 536 Ave and 490 St, illustrates the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the Nebraska prairie into the early 21st century.
