1963 Map of Venus

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Verdigre Creek and its complex network of tributaries, including the Middle Branch and South Branch, carve through this section of the Nebraska sandhills at the intersection of Holt, Knox, and Antelope counties. This mid-century landscape is defined by its rural education and community network, anchored by the small settlement of Venus. The distribution of local schools like Cream Ridge Sch, Venus Sch, and School No 65 reflects a traditional township-based settlement pattern typical of the era. Genealogists can locate family-specific landmarks such as Lambert Cem and numerous mapped wells, which were vital for agricultural survival. Significant water features like Saltz Lake and Big Springs Creek punctuate the terrain, illustrating the hydrology of the Missouri River Basin development program under which this survey was conducted.
