About this map

Wisner anchors this Cuming County landscape, situated along the northern bank of the Elkhorn River as it winds through Nebraska's agricultural heartland. The town’s grid is clearly defined by historical thoroughfares like Avenue H and 9th St, while Us-275 serves as the primary regional artery connecting the community to the surrounding plains. The local geography is defined by the river’s floodplain, featuring several distinct water bodies including Kanes Lake, Woerdeman Lake, and Raabe Lake which underscore the shifting path of the river over time.

For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies key burial sites including Wisner Cem on the town's eastern edge and the more rural Salem Cem located to the southwest. The terrain is crisscrossed by a network of numbered section roads, such as 3rd Rd and River Rd, that partition the undulating hills drained by Sand Cr, Rock Cr, and N Br Pebble Cr. This survey provides a precise view of the rural infrastructure and land management patterns of the early 21st century.
