2017 Map of Wymore

About this map

The Big Blue River and Big Indian Creek define the hydrologic character of this Southeast Nebraska landscape, where the town of Wymore serves as the primary hub near the northern boundary. This 2017 survey reveals a highly organized agricultural grid, punctuated by a series of water management projects including Big Indian Cr Reservoir 2-A, Big Indian Cr Reservoir 2-B, and Big Indian Creek Reservoir 11-A. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating rural burial sites such as Bethel Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and the twin cemeteries of Wymore Cem and Calvary Cem north of the main settlement. Small-scale infrastructure like the Thomsen Airport and the crossroads at Krider illustrate the persistence of rural communities along the State Line Rd bordering Kansas, while numerous small waterways like Otoe Cr and Meadow Cr thread through the township sections of Gage and Marshall counties.
