1952 Map of Taylor NW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Calamus River winds through the heart of this Loup County landscape, where the sandhills terrain is organized into distinct local divisions known as Bloody, Little York, Strohl, and Taylor. This 1950s-era topography, updated with revisions from the mid-1970s, reveals a cattle-ranching economy defined by isolated homesteads like Upriver Ranch and Holmes Ranch. The rural social fabric is anchored by the Sebesta Sch in the southeast, serving the families working these expansive tracts. Along the river, hydrological features such as Horseshoe Bend Lake and Mud Bayou indicate a dynamic water system prone to shifting channels. The map provides a detailed view of the Missouri River Basin development era, preserving the locations of windmills and section-line roads essential to Nebraska's high plains history.
