1948 Map of Whitman

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad cuts through the southern Nebraska Sandhills, connecting the small unincorporated communities of Whitman and Duluth. This post-war survey highlights a landscape defined by extensive ranching operations, such as the Monahan Ranch, Dumbbell Ranch, and Rothwell Ranch, which utilized the natural meadows between the dunes. The presence of the Red Mill School serves as a reminder of the rural education system that supported these isolated ranching families during the mid-20th century.
