About this map

The Westerville settlement and the winding course of Clear Creek define this agricultural portion of Custer County. In the early 21st century, the landscape remains a mix of ranching operations like the Pederson Ranch and high plateau geography such as the French Tableland in the northwest. The presence of the Westerville Post Office indicates the town's continued role as a local civic hub for the surrounding rural sections.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant value in the distribution of burial sites across the township, including Westerville Cemetery, Lone Tree Cemetery, French Tableland Cemetery, and Dry Valley Cemetery. These sites, along with the small community of Weissert connected by Weissert Rd, illustrate a settlement pattern rooted in small, dispersed community centers that served the prairie farming families of central Nebraska.
