2017 Map of Wahoo East

About this map

Wahoo serves as the primary hub in this eastern Saunders County landscape, where the grid of city streets meets the sprawling agricultural sections of the Nebraska plains. The drainage of Wahoo Creek and Silver Creek dictates the topography, anchored by the significant presence of Lake Wanahoo to the north and a series of managed water bodies like Swedeburg Reservoir 2B-1 to the south. Genealogists can locate several distinct burial grounds serving the local communities, including Greenwood Cem, Sunrise Cem, and Saint Francis Cem near the main settlement, as well as the more remote Alma Cem to the east. Smaller rural centers like Ithaca and Swedeburg mark the intersections of the county road system, while Bodleys Hill provides a rare point of elevation change in a region otherwise defined by its undulating stream valleys and steady agricultural development.
