About this map

Cedar River flows through the southwestern corner of this Iowa landscape, where the northern outskirts of Waverly begin to transition into the organized section lines of Bremer County. This township structure is defined by a rigorous grid of rural roads like Co Hwy V14 and Garden Ave, which connect small outlying settlements such as Horton and Bremer. The area is characterized by several distinct drainage patterns, including the meandering paths of Baskins Run and Quarter Section Run.

Genealogical interest is centered on well-maintained burial sites including the Saint Johns Lutheran Cem in the northeast and Horton Cem near the center of the survey. These landmarks, along with Andrews Cem, serve as quiet anchors for the local history of these farming townships. The map documents a contemporary view of the region's agricultural layout, preserving the names of the creeks and small communities that have sustained this part of the state for generations.
