1901 Map of Paxton

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

Paxton and the surrounding Nebraska ranchlands are defined here by the critical water infrastructure of the late 19th century. Surveyed in 1898, this landscape shows the convergence of the North Platte River and the South Platte River, a geography that dictated the development of the region's transport and agriculture. The Union Pacific railroad tracks run parallel to the southern river branch, anchoring settlements like Sutherland and Hershey.
