2011 Map of Ough

About this map

Ough is a quiet agricultural settlement in Dundy County, Nebraska, where the landscape is defined by the section-line grid typical of the High Plains. Two local burial grounds, Ough Cemetery and Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, serve as key landmarks for genealogists tracing early families in this corner of the state. The terrain is largely defined by open expanses and drainage patterns of the Muddy Creek, which wanders through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Transportation is strictly functional, relying on a network of unpaved rural routes such as 339 Ave and 727 Rd that connect isolated homesteads and ranching operations. The 2011 survey reflects the enduring rural character of the region, where settlement patterns remain sparse and heavily tied to the land and its limited water resources.
