2014 Map of Republican City NE

About this map

Bailey Cem sits along the eastern edge of this agricultural landscape in Franklin County, serving as a quiet landmark amidst a grid of rural section lines. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Center Cr and several namesake reservoirs that support the local farming economy. Frerichs Reservoir and Adam Reservoir capture runoff in the northern reaches, while Phillipson Reservoir and Anderson Reservoir are situated further south. A dense network of local roads, including Ridge Rd and several numbered routes, facilitates movement across the rolling prairie. The map details the intricate branching of Big Cottonwood Cr and Little Cottonwood Cr as they carve through the Republican River watershed, illustrating the essential relationship between water management and Great Plains land use in the early 21st century.
