About this map

Agricultural drainage and the precise geometry of Iowa's township-and-range system define this 2013 survey of Franklin County. The landscape is intricately carved by several watercourses, most notably Hartgrave Cr and Maynes Cr, which meander through a dense network of sectional roads. Smaller tributaries like Fockler Cr, Coon Cr, and Johnson Cr further break up the prairie terrain, illustrating the natural watershed patterns of the North Central Iowa region.

A rigid grid of county roads and named avenues, including Wren Ave, Yarrow Ave, and Vine Ave, facilitates the regional farming economy. In the southern portion of the map, the headwaters of N Beaver Cr emerge, while Co Hwy S67 provides a primary north-south corridor through the rural townships. This map offers a clear view of the state's modern land management and hydrological features, essential for understanding the local topography and property boundaries.
