1980 Map of Abingdon

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Abingdon and Batavia anchor the agricultural landscape of this southeast Iowa region along the border of Wapello Co Jefferson Co. This survey from the late 1970s and 1980 illustrates a transition from the rolling drainage basins of Competine Creek and Cedar Creek to the established grid of country roads. The settlement pattern is defined by several rural burial grounds that speak to the area's genealogical history, including Forrest Cem, Dickens Cem, and Walnut Hill Cem. The southern edge of the map is punctuated by the village of Batavia and the Batavia Peoples Ch, where the C M St P & P railroad line runs east-to-west. Other small communities like Bladensburg appear along the secondary routes, providing a detailed look at the township divisions of Competine, Polk, Pleasant, and Locust Grove before modern expansion.
