2016 Map of Eyota

About this map

Eyota and Dover anchor this portion of Olmsted County, illustrating the agricultural and residential patterns of southeastern Minnesota. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of the S Fork Whitewater River, Mill Cr, and Lunch Cr, which carve through the land south of the primary settlements. Genealogical interest is particularly high given the presence of several distinct burial grounds, including the Evergreen Cem near Dover and the smaller Edith Wright Farm Cem and Cline Cem situated among the farmsteads. These family-named landmarks and rural cemeteries provide a direct link to the area's early landowning history. The map also captures the layout of the Eyota Airport and the local road network, from named streets like Rena Belle St to the grid of secondary routes that connect the various townships.
