2014 Map of Talmage

About this map

Little Nemaha River and its multiple forks define the landscape of southeastern Nebraska where Otoe, Johnson, and Nemaha counties meet. The settlement of Talmage serves as a local hub near the confluence of the N Fork Little Nemaha River and the main channel, showing a clear grid of streets including Main St and Market St. To the north, the village of Lorton sits along the North Fork, while the community of Tangeman is situated further west along Co Road 40. This era is characterized by an extensive network of water management, evidenced by numerous numbered reservoirs such as Wilson Cr Reservoir 3-6 and Little Nemaha River Reservoir 3-1B. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of several burial grounds, including Grant Evergreen Cem and Biggs Cem, which are scattered throughout the agricultural uplands.
