2018 Map of Colwell

About this map

Colwell serves as the primary hub in this Iowa landscape, situated at the intersection of Co Hwy T72 and 140th Street. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of the Wapsipinicon River to the east and the Little Cedar River to the southwest, with Beaver Cr cutting through the center of the township. This modern survey reflects the enduring section-line grid system, where long-established road names like Addison Ave and Victory Ave segment the agricultural fields. Genealogists can identify significant burial sites in the region, including Saint Patricks Cem in the northeast corner and Beckwith Cem located just off Co Hwy B33. The map captures the meeting of four counties—Mitchell, Howard, Floyd, and Chickasaw—marking a vital corner of the state's rural geography.
