2017 Map of Smyrna Cemetery

About this map

Smyrna Cem serves as a quiet landmark within this vast section of the Nebraska Panhandle, situated near the intersection of RD 44 and RD 81. The landscape is defined by the high plains of Cheyenne County, where the seasonal waters of Rush Cr meander through the northern townships. This 2017 survey illustrates the enduring grid of the Public Land Survey System, with boundaries such as t16n r52w and t15n r53w framing a territory dedicated almost exclusively to ranching and dryland agriculture. The sparse distribution of named features emphasizes the open, rural character of the region, where a network of county roads including RD 52 and RD 36 provides the primary infrastructure connecting isolated homesteads across the tablelands.
