2017 Map of York North

About this map

York anchor this portion of the Nebraska plains, where the grid of sections meets the meandering course of Lincoln Cr. The landscape is defined by its agricultural layout, marked by small named crossroads and rail stops that illustrate the early twentieth-century settlement patterns of York County. Smaller communities like Thayer, Houston, and Mapps serve as waypoints across the township lines. Genealogists can locate family sites near Zion Cem and Rosemond Cem, while the inclusion of the York Municipal Airport at the western edge of town shows the modern evolution of the area's transportation infrastructure. Local hydrology is represented by smaller tributaries including Coon Br and the engineered waters of Wessels Reservoir to the northeast.
