Burr Oak is a rural, unincorporated place in Custer County, Nebraska, located in Loup Township about 8.9 miles northeast of Eddyville. Like nearby Buckeye, Burr Oak has no Wikipedia entry and does not appear in Perkey's Nebraska Place Names, but it is confirmed as a genuine populated place through GNIS-sourced records. No founding date or name origin has been documented, though the name may derive from a bur oak tree or grove in the area — a common naming pattern in the region — though this connection is not independently confirmed. County gazetteers also reference a “Burr Oak Church” near this location, suggesting the place may have centered on a rural church congregation rather than a commercial townsite. No population figures have ever been recorded for Burr Oak.
