About this map

The Middle Loup River valley dominates the southwestern corner of this survey, where the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad tracks parallel the water near the settlement of Norway. This post-war map of the Nebraska Sandhills reveals a landscape characterized by intermittent drainage and specialized cattle-country infrastructure. One notable detail for genealogists is the distribution of local education hubs across the remote terrain, including Eatinger Sch in the north and Antelope Valley Sch further south. These schools, alongside School No 9, mark the social center of a sparsely populated ranching region. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Calf Creek Valley to the elevations of Pleasant Hill, while isolated water features like Duck Lake provide vital resources in an otherwise arid environment.
