2017 Map of Wayne SW

About this map

The community of Spurville occupies a central position on this 2017 landscape, which straddles the boundary between Wayne and Stanton Counties. This region is defined by a complex network of drainage systems, including the headwaters of Humbug Creek and its southern branch, alongside Payne Creek and Maskenthine Creek. Small-scale water management is evident through several impoundments such as Brogren Reservoir and Dangberg Reservoir, which support the agricultural life of the plains. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the exact locations of rural landmarks like Bega Cemetery and Bethlehem Cemetery, the latter associated with a local church site. The township and range divisions, including t24n r2e, provide the essential framework for tracing 21st-century property records and historic land use patterns in this part of northeastern Nebraska.
