About this map

Spencer Dam and its associated reservoir on the Niobrara River dominate the central landscape of this Boyd County region in the early 1950s. The northern portion of the map is defined by the town of Spencer and the winding course of Ponca Creek, while the Chicago and North Western railroad provides a vital transportation link across the prairie. The distribution of several rural schools, including School No 6, School No 14, and School No 142, reflects the established agricultural community of the era.
