About this map

Leo Valley and the surrounding Nebraska townships of Dublin, Logan, and Cedar are documented here as part of a mid-century effort by the Department of the Interior to develop the Missouri River Basin. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Cedar R and Timber Creek, with the North Branch and South Branch Timber Creek carving into the terrain. This area reflects a dense network of early rural education, evidenced by numerous local schoolhouses including Criss Sch, Leo Valley Sch, and Sleepy Hollow Sch. The presence of School No 80 (Abandoned) highlights the shifting demographics and consolidation of these prairie districts. Genealogists will find the Enfield Cemetery near Enfield Sch, situated along the boundary of Greeley Co and Boone Co.
