About this map

Oconto serves as the primary hub in this central Nebraska landscape, positioned at the intersection of local routes and the Wood River. The map reveals a transition from the structured street grid of the town, including S Railroad St, to the winding drainage patterns of the surrounding highlands. Notable for genealogists are the dispersed burial grounds that anchor the local history, including Saint Mary Cem just north of the village and the more distant Lodi Cem and Riverside Cem.

Redfern Table dominates the southwestern corner, illustrating the distinct flat-topped landforms characteristic of Custer County. The village of Lodi appears to the northwest, situated along the upper reaches of the Wood River, while the northeastern corner is defined by the course of the South Loup River. The network of section-line roads, such as Redfern Rd and Lodi Rd, demonstrates the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the region's development and transport.
