2014 Map of Nickerson NW

About this map

Agricultural lifeways across the undulating plains of eastern Nebraska are clearly defined on this map where Dodge, Burt, and Washington Counties converge. The landscape is primarily organized by a strict grid of county roads such as Co Line Rd and H Blvd, which navigate the drainage basins of Clark Cr and Bell Cr. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in cemetery locations that anchor the history of these farming townships. Small burial sites including Argo Cem, Baptist Cem, and the dual locations of Admah Cem and W Admah Cem serve as vital markers for family history research. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Bachelor Cr winds through the hills near Logan Cem, illustrating the way early rural communities established their sacred spaces and boundaries along the natural contours of the Platte River valley watershed.
