2017 Map of York South

About this map

York serves as the focal point of this agricultural and educational landscape, situated north of the West Fork Big Blue River. The town is the site of York College and is surrounded by a network of rural cemeteries including Greenwood Cem and Saint Josephs Cem, providing a detailed record for genealogical research. The topography is defined by the drainage patterns of Beaver Creek and Galaway Cr, which flow through a grid of section-line roads and homesteads. Further south, the community of Knox and the Knox Landing area appear along the principal north-south transit corridor. Water management and natural basins are evident through features like the Wochner Reservoir and Sucks Lake, which break the geometric regularity of the Nebraska prairie.
