About this map

The Republican River meanders across this landscape of south-central Nebraska, serving as the primary drainage for a region defined by its water management and rural road networks. In the northwest corner, the town of Oxford and nearby Oxford Junction mark a significant transit point, while the community of Stamford anchors the southwestern section along Old State Hwy 89. Local genealogy is centered at the Stamford Cem, located just north of the town site.

Water infrastructure is a dominant theme of this 2017 survey, featuring the Cambridge Canal and several artificial catchments including Stamford Reservoir 2-A and Crow Reservoir. The southern border follows the course of Sappa Cr, near the small rail or road meeting point of Flynn Junction. The grid of section roads, such as 715 Rd and 718 Rd, illustrates the persistent agricultural layout of Harlan and Furnas counties.
