2015 Map of Boxholm

About this map

Boxholm and Pilot Mound anchor this central Iowa agricultural landscape along the northern border of Boone Co. The map documents a highly structured rural grid, where township lines like t85n r28w and t86n r27w organize a network of county roads including Co Hwy P70 and Paragon Ave. Family history is deeply etched into the land through the Swedish Lutheran Church Cem, Lawn Cem, and Union Cem, each serving as a vital landmark for genealogical research. Natural watercourses like Middle Beaver Cr and Bluff Cr cut through the geometric section lines, eventually leading to Don Williams Lake in the south. The presence of Drainage Ditch Number 107 reflects the long-standing importance of water management in sustaining the productivity of this prairie region.
