How to use the Fillmore County township map

From Geneva to the back roads
From Geneva, the seat of the county, the map spreads out to Exeter, Fairmont, Grafton, and Milligan. Smaller places such as Burress, Carlisle, and Martland appear on the county map as little clusters of lots. Roughly 575 square miles of land and about 5,548 residents (2023 estimate) make up Fillmore County. Outside Geneva, most of the county map is farm, ranch or timber ground with large, irregular tracts.
Reading sections near Shickley
On a grid map of Fillmore County, numbering starts with section 1 in the northeast corner, with the count snaking back and forth to 36 in the southeast. Calls like 'NE 1/4 of the SW 1/4' near Shickley read backward: locate the southwest quarter, then its northeast quarter, on the county grid. Water, old surveys and corrections can leave odd-sized lots along section edges in Fillmore County.
Old names and overlapping districts in Fillmore County
If a county deed near Carlisle cites a township that no longer appears on the map, the county recorder can usually explain the change. Election maps, school districts and fire districts in Fillmore County don't always follow township lines near Geneva, so check each one separately.
What drives land use around Geneva
Fillmore County's 2022 business count was 215 establishments, with retail trade, wholesale trade, and other services the largest groups. Compared with national shares, Fillmore County leans toward chemical manufacturing and wholesale of nondurable goods (including farm products), which shapes demand for land near Milligan.
Recorded documents in Fillmore County, Nebraska
For land near Milligan, the deed itself lives in the county recording office, and the map is an index to it. Copy the parcel number and legal description from the county record before you request a deed for land near Ohiowa.
