1912 Map of Ames
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Iowa State College anchors the southern portion of this 1912 survey, situated just west of the growing hub of Ames. The landscape is defined by the diverging paths of Squaw Creek and the Skunk River, which carve through a dense grid of rural townships. This era of Story County history is characterized by an extraordinary concentration of country schoolhouses, with nearly every section of land serviced by local institutions like the Copenhagen School, Reischauer School, and Zenorville School.
