1963 Map of Avoca

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The West Nishnabotna River and the East Branch converge just south of Avoca, forming the geographic heart of this mid-century western Iowa landscape. The township boundaries of Knox, Layton, and Lincoln define the surrounding agricultural territory, where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad tracks trace a winding path alongside the watercourses. This network of rails and rivers reflects the historical transportation patterns that sustained the towns of Hancock and the smaller station at Ballard.
