Millerton, Nebraska
Millerton is an unincorporated community in Butler County, Nebraska, in eastern Nebraska. Like several of the county's smallest historic settlements, Millerton has no formal population count today, having faded from a small postal community into a quiet rural crossroads.
History
Millerton was named for William P. Miller, a pioneer settler in the area. A post office was established there in 1888 and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1934, after which the community's role as a local hub gradually diminished as rural mail routes and improved roads took over.
Location & Geography
Millerton sits at approximately 41.186°N, 97.215°W in Butler County, amid the surrounding farmland of the county's interior.
