About this map

The North Platte River winds through this Converse County landscape, anchoring a valley defined by early ranching and vital transportation links. During the late 1940s, the area served as a crossroads where the Chicago and Northwestern and the Burlington and Quincy railroads met at Orin Junction. The map documents a corridor of family-named holdings along the river and its tributaries, including the Osgood Ranch, Puckett Ranch, and Rogers Ranch, illustrating the settlement pattern of the high plains.
