About this map

Spurville and the surrounding agricultural landscapes of the Nebraska prairie are documented in this topographic record, which straddles the boundary between Wayne Co and Stanton Co. The terrain is defined by the drainage networks of Humbug Creek and its various tributaries, including the South Branch Humbug Creek. These waterways, along with Payne Creek and Indian Creek, influence the grid-based road system that services the local farming community.

Genealogists and local historians can find specific points of interest such as the Bethlehem Cemetery and Bega Cemetery, which provide direct links to the area's early settlement history. Water management is evident through the inclusion of the Dangberg Reservoir and Brogren Reservoir, reflecting the rural infrastructure necessary to support the region's agricultural productivity during the early 21st century.
