2017 Map of Poole

About this map

Poole sits along the northern banks of the South Loup River in Buffalo County, serving as the primary settlement in a landscape defined by braided river channels and sand creeks. The terrain is structured by a rigorous section-line road grid, including Husker Rd and Grand Island Rd, which navigate the subtle elevations of the Platte River valley watershed. Genealogists and local historians will find several rural burial sites, such as Majors Cem near the river and Saint Joseph Cem to the east. The presence of the Skochdopole Reservoir and various watercourses like Cedar Cr and Sweet Cr illustrate the vital role of water management in this agricultural region. This survey documents the modern layout of the rural Nebraska countryside, preserving the placement of family landmarks and community cemeteries within the historical township boundaries.
