USGS Topo · Published 1917About this map
The Union Pacific railroad and the North Platte River define the development of this Nebraska corridor at the close of the 19th century. A network of early irrigation efforts is visible through the Alfalfa Canal, Holcomb and Mc Ginley Canal, and the Ogallala Cattle Co. Canal, illustrating the region's transition into an agricultural powerhouse. The landscape is marked by numerous family legacy sites including Mahaffey's Ranch, Kingsley's Ranch, and Bränz's Ranch, providing valuable points of reference for genealogists tracking early settlers.
