2015 Map of Centerville East

About this map

Centerville serves as the primary urban hub in this southeastern Iowa landscape, where the street grid transitions into the sprawling rural topography of Appanoose County. The Chariton River meanders across the eastern half of the map, notably showing an Old Channel that indicates the waterway's natural shifts over time. This 2015 survey is particularly valuable for genealogical research, documenting numerous rural burial sites including the Jewish Cem, Oakland Cem, and Mount Ararat Cem. The small settlements of Exline, Sedan, and Thirty mark the intersections of county roads and historical rail corridors, while the southern reach is defined by the winding paths of Pigeon Cr and Shoal Cr. The map's detailed documentation of industrial zones and overpasses like the Sixteenth Street Overpass reflects the modern infrastructure supporting this agricultural and trade region.
