About this map

Farmington anchors the southern landscape of this 1960s survey, situated where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroads converge near the Des Moines River. The map documents a rural Iowa community in transition, showing the expansive Shimek State Forest and the development of Indian Lake Park. Settlement patterns are defined by small hamlets like Sharon and Primrose, each supported by their respective burial grounds such as Sharon Cem and Primrose Cem.
