Crossword Genius

Some from a hallowed place in Nebraska (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

omaha

'place in nebraska' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'some from a hallowed' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'OMAHA' is hidden in the letters of 'from a hallowed'.

(Other definitions for omaha that I've seen before include "place in Nebraska" , "Nebraska city and code-named beach of D-Day landings" , "O, a ham found in US city on Missouri river" , "This was old Indian territory" , "US city; D-Day 16" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
