About this map

Sykes Cem serves as a lonely landmark in this high plains landscape of southwest Nebraska, situated near the intersection of Fear Rd and W Fear Rd. The area is defined by its vast, rolling topography and a sparse grid of section-line roads that suggest a resilient agricultural presence. Significant routes such as Dickens Rd and Sugar Rd traverse the terrain, connecting isolated ranching or farming outposts.

Industrial and rural development is evidenced by local thoroughfares like Dairy Rd and W Swanson Rd. The cartography by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the quiet character of Lincoln County in the early 21st century, showing a region where the land's natural contours largely dictate the placement of human infrastructure. This survey is particularly useful for genealogists tracing family ties to the small cemeteries and named roads of the Wallace NE area.
