2018 Map of Boxholm

About this map

Boxholm and Pilot Mound anchor this central Iowa landscape along the border of Webster and Boone Counties. This 2018 survey documents a highly organized agricultural grid defined by namesake roads like Paragon Ave and Racine Ave. The region's drainage history is evident through features such as Drainage Ditch Number 107, while natural waterways like Middle Beaver Creek and Bluff Creek meander through the southern sections. Local heritage is preserved at sites like the Swedish Lutheran Church Cemetery, which serves as a landmark of the area's cultural settlement. Smaller communities like Wolf and well-placed rural burial grounds including Lawn Cemetery and Union Cemetery provide key points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing family roots in Grant Township.
