About this map

The Platte River corridor separates Dodge and Saunders counties, defining the geography of this eastern Nebraska landscape. North Bend sits as a primary transit hub along the northern bank, where Us-30 and a grid of local streets like W 10th St and E 7th St meet. To the south, across the braided channels and Bignells Island, the terrain shifts toward the community of Morse Bluff.

Genealogical interest is found in three distinct burial sites: Woodland Cem north of town, an Old Cem near the riverbank, and Killian Cem in the southern hills near Indian Peak. The map details the local water management system, including the N Bend Cutoff Ditch and Skull Creek, which manage the drainage of the fertile valley. To the southeast, the Musiel Airport and Scotts Lake Rd mark the outer edges of Morse Bluff's rural influence.
