Any chance this was in central Nebraska?

  Interesting location choice. Why central NE?

    Family of a friend was involved with a cancer cluster near Grand Island. I think there is some environmental contamination of some sort, I know there are agg chemicals in the aquifer. Similar shockingly high numbers for a relatively small community.

  One possibility: Operation Plumbbob, a series of open air nuclear tests in 1957, generated considerable fallout in north central NE.

      That looks more probable for Iowa than NE. Still, great link! Never seen the before
