Banner Co., NEGenWeb

Banner County was originally a part of a very large Cheyenne County until early settlers voted for a closer county seat in 1888, which in turn resulted in the creation of Scotts Bluff, Kimball, Banner, and Deuel Counties and greatly reduced Cheyenne County.

Banner County Coordinator is Judy Leafdale. Please feel free to contact her if you have any questions about this site of if you’d like to contribute information or data to this project.
