About this map

Wisner anchors this landscape in Cuming County, situated on the northern banks of the Elkhorn River. The town's grid is established northeast of where Sand Creek meets the main channel, providing a clear view of the community's layout near the Wisner Cem. The surrounding terrain is defined by a series of oxbow lakes and water bodies, including Kanes Lake, Woerdeman Lake, and Raabe Lake, which trace the shifting path of the river through the valley.

South of the river, the land transitions into an agricultural grid marked by systematic road naming, such as Q Rd and K Rd. Genealogists may find interest in the location of Salem Cem, positioned along N Rd amidst the drainages of Rock Cr. The map captures the hydrological network of the region, from the Dry Ditch in the northeast to the headwaters of N Br Pebble Cr in the south, reflecting the area's reliance on the Elkhorn valley drainage system.
