Nebraska Forest Service register · retrieved October 9, 2026 · edition not stated

90 records are included in this imported selection. 83 have approximate map points; 7 remain searchable without a marker. Multiple trees can share one town or county point.

Register editions, retrieval dates, and individual measurement dates describe different things. This snapshot does not confirm current tree condition. Approximate map points do not locate individual trees or establish permission to visit.

How this register was selected and mapped

Nebraska Forest Service at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, retrieved October 9, 2026. All 90 published rows are included, including numbered and repeated species entries. Names and scores remain as published; co-champion titles are not inferred. Nomination and measurement dates remain separate, and year-only dates retain their original precision. No edition date is stated.

83 records use 42 approximate 2025 Census place points. Seven remain searchable without markers: Sparks and Marsland do not match Census place names, and five records do not name an unambiguous municipality. Nearby and directional descriptions refer only to the named place, not the tree. Counties and visiting permission are not inferred. Consult the register and landowner before visiting.

Circumference in feet is converted to inches. Peachleaf Willow’s explicit 124-inch circumference takes precedence over the feet column heading. Published scores remain unchanged, including inconsistencies with measurements. Published location descriptions are retained, but personal steward names and exact tree coordinates are not copied.
