2011 Map of Rock Bluff

About this map

The Missouri River carves a winding path through this 2011 survey, defining the borderlands between Nebraska and Iowa. On the western bank, the terrain is punctuated by significant elevations like Queen Hill and King Hill, while the eastern floodplain is marked by drainage systems such as Keg Creek and Honey Slough. This area preserves several family and community landmarks, including the Rock Bluff Cemetery and Van Eaton Cemetery, which offer valuable coordinates for genealogical research. Large river features like Tobacco Island, Noddleman Island, and Goose Island illustrate the shifting nature of the river channel over time. Small settlements and named locales such as Rock Bluff, Burr Oak, and Bartlett are connected by a network of rural routes and the modern Interstate system, while Sargents Spur and Egypt hint at localized points of historical interest in the agricultural landscape.
