Agricultural heritage and deep-seated immigrant roots define this portion of Howard County, where the village of Nysted and the town of Farwell anchor a landscape of rolling loess hills. The map reveals a cluster of burial grounds that reflect the area's diverse ethnic history, including the Czechoslovakia Cem, Saint Wenceslaus Cem, and Warsaw Cem. These sites, along with the Nysted Evangelical Cem and Scotch Cem, serve as primary landmarks for genealogical research in a region dominated by section-line roads like Naper Rd and Odell Rd.
