HOLMESVILLE, NE — This collection offers a glimpse into southeast Nebraska’s history. It includes more than two thousand images from across the region and it's on display in one of today’s most popular formats; a Facebook page.

For Holmesville resident Heather Korn, it started by collecting information about her family history.

“(I was collecting) history, photos, stories, that kind of stuff," Korn said. "Then I realized, I’m enjoying this but what am I going to do with it?”

So she started the Untold History of Southeast Nebraska page. As her topics expanded, so did the page. She now posts images from about five different locations each day and the page boasts more than 5,000 followers.

“I really enjoy finding those little things, I say I find them in the nooks and crannies of time," Korn said. "I love to just find those little tidbits, those little stories and then go down different rabbit holes and find out what I can discover.”

It takes constant digging to find new, old images to share. Her sources include the Library of Congress, National Archives, genealogy sites, Wikipedia and newspapers.

Korn has lived all over the country as a musician. She says this area’s history is truly unique.

“It was the way to develop the west," Korn said. "Nebraska was the opening of the western frontier,” Korn said. “That’s, I think, why it’s so important and why people are really into it.”

The next step in the history of this page? Growing the website she launched in November. Korn hopes to use that platform share more written stories about southeast Nebraska's past.
