2015 Map of Andrew

About this map

Andrew serves as a central hub in this section of Jackson County, surrounded by a complex network of agricultural land and deeply incised drainage systems. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Brush Cr and Little Mill Cr, which carve through the terrain toward Dark Hollow in the south. This 2015 survey reveals a high density of small family and community burial sites, including the Dorr Cem and Herrig Cem, which are essential for genealogical research in this rural Iowa township. Notably, the map records the Country Poor Farm Cem and adjacent Jackson County Cem, offering a window into the social history and institutional care of the region. To the north, the small settlement of Cottonville sits along the Bellevue Cascade Rd, illustrating the persistence of early transport corridors in the modern rural landscape.
