1965 Map of Gunder

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Turkey River carves a deep, winding path through the northeast Iowa countryside, defining the rural character of this mid-1960s landscape. Near the western edge of the sheet, Elgin sits at the confluence of several valley systems, while the smaller settlement of Gunder anchors the eastern highlands. This area is characterized by a strong network of country congregations and burial grounds that reflect the region's cultural heritage, including the East Clermont Ch and the Highland Ch near the southern border. The map shows a landscape transitioning between forested slopes and plateau farmland, with numerous quarries and springs scattered across the townships of Marion and Grand Meadow. Genealogists may find the exact locations of the Houg Cem and Apostolic Cem particularly valuable for tracing local family histories in this corner of Clayton and Fayette counties.
