The settlement of Poole sits along the northern edge of this Buffalo County landscape, where the South Loup River winds through a series of wide, wandering bends. This 2014 survey documents a classic Nebraska plains environment defined by its drainage systems, including Sand Cr, Cedar Cr, and Sweet Cr, which feed the river valley. The map is a vital resource for genealogical research, pinpointing several local burial grounds such as Majors Cem in the west, Saint Joseph Cem to the east, and Pleasant Ridge Cem further south. Significant water management is noted at the Skochdopole Reservoir, illustrating how the agricultural landscape utilizes the local terrain. The grid of section roads like Ravenna Rd and Grand Island Rd provides a clear framework for tracing property boundaries and land use throughout the rural township.
