About this map

Mud Creek winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, cutting through the complex topography of southeastern Wheeler County during the mid-twentieth century. The terrain is characterized by intricate landforms and depressions typical of this part of Nebraska, providing a detailed look at the rural environment before later developments. The map highlights the essential local infrastructure of the era, specifically showing the placement of rural education centers like School No 19 in the southwest and School No 39 further east. The boundary between Wheeler Co and Boone Co runs vertically through the eastern portion of the sheet, marking a significant administrative divide for genealogists and local historians tracing land ownership and residency across county lines during the late 1950s and early 1960s.
