2022 Map of Frederika

About this map

Frederika sits along the southern edge of this survey where the Wapsipinicon River meanders through the landscape of southern Chickasaw and northern Bremer counties. The river valley defines the local geography, joined by smaller tributaries such as Crane Cr, Etter Cr, and the East Fork Wapsipinicon River. This modern topographic study reveals a rural area organized by a rigid section-line road grid, including McCloud Ave and Newell Ave, which connects the small settlement of Williamstown in the north to the more developed streets of Frederika. Local landmarks like Saint Johns Cem and the North East Iowa Garden of Memories offer specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family ties to these townships. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of natural drainage patterns and late-twentieth-century agricultural infrastructure.
