2015 Map of Wilson NE

About this map

The Saline River cuts through the northwest corner of this Lincoln County landscape, defining a terrain of deeply etched drainage basins. The area's rural character is anchored by small burial grounds like Emmanuel Church Cem in the northeast and Voss Cem further south along N 120th RD. These landmarks serve as vital points of reference for genealogists tracing early families in the region. The map shows an extensive network of creeks, including Bullfoot Cr and Buffalo Cr, which carve through the plains. The rectangular grid of section lines is marked by roads named for the natural environment, such as Fox Dr, Elk Dr, and Bison Dr, reflecting the prairie history of these townships. This topographic record captures the transition between the uplands and the river valley before the modern era.
