About this map

The town of Charlotte serves as a focal point on this eastern Iowa landscape, where local streets like Broadway and Park Ave intersect against the winding path of Deep Cr. To the northeast, the settlement of Goose Lake borders its namesake water body, illustrating a classic rural development pattern where community life follows the availability of water and the orientation of primary roads. The agricultural character of Clinton County is defined here by a dense network of numbered avenues and streets that partition the terrain between various tributaries.

Waterways such as Willow Cr, Honey Cr, and Cherry Cr drain the fields, while the small settlement of Villanova sits further south along the grid. The map preserves the specific 21st-century road designations, from Co Hwy-Z2E to the numerous section-line roads like 160th St, which provide an essential framework for researchers tracing modern property boundaries and local landmarks in this corner of the state.
