About this map

The agricultural landscape of south-central Nebraska is meticulously documented in this 1969 field check, where the village of Trumbull sits at the intersection of four counties: Adams, Clay, Hall, and Hamilton. The map illustrates a region defined by its reliance on water and rail, with the Union Pacific line running through the small settlement of Hansen in the west and the Burlington Northern cutting diagonally through the east.

Genealogists and local historians can locate specific landmarks like School No 33 and the Greenwood Cem, providing concrete links to the rural community's 20th-century footprint. The drainage patterns of the West Fork Big Blue River and its North Branch contrast with the engineered presence of the England Landing Strip and numerous wells scattered across sections like Doniphan, Scoville, and West Blue.
