1951 Map of Round Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Lillian Creek meanders through the central hills of Custer County, shaping the agricultural landscape of central Nebraska in the early 1950s. This survey, part of the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program, captures the rural character of the region where local life centered around valley schools and small cemeteries. The settlement at Round Valley serves as a focal point in the eastern portion of the map, anchored by the Round Valley Cem. The topography is defined by distinct township-sized regions including Lillian, Garfield, and Broken Bow. Evidence of early community infrastructure is preserved through the locations of the Sargent Valley Sch and Swiss Valley Sch, illustrating the dispersed nature of education across the Sargent Valley and Swiss Valley at mid-century.
