Welcome to Nesbit ...

So far, we found very little information about Nesbit. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Nesbit to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Nesbit - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Nesbit, please Contact Us.


While we don't have the exact location of Nesbit , we believe that it would have been located within present day Logan County<2>.

While we don't have a date for the founding of Nesbit, you might consider that their post office opened  in 1890.

Time Zone: The area where Nesbit was located is in the Central Time Zone (CST/CDT) and observes daylight saving time

From that list, the Nesbit post office opened in 1890.

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Nesbit, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
<2>If you're interested in how the shape of Nebraska's counties, including Logan, have changed over time, we recommend the Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
