About this map

The border of Dixon Co and Dakota Co divides this rural landscape, which is defined by the dendritic drainage patterns of Elk Cr and its numerous tributaries. Small village centers like Waterbury and Goodwin anchor the local road network, while Willis sits further east along the Us-20 corridor. The terrain is deeply dissected by several named waterways, including Otter Cr and Minnow Cr, which flow toward the Heeney Reservoir in the central portion of the quadrangle.

Local history is preserved in the location of the Marcus Cem and Wood Cem, providing valuable points of reference for genealogists. The map illustrates a strictly agricultural and pastoral economy, with section lines and rural routes such as Rose Blvd and W Sarpy Rd following the contours of the Nebraska hills. Other smaller drainages, such as Eagle Cr, Badger Cr, and Little Cr, further detail the intricate hydrology of the region.
