1979 Map of Hampton South

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The county seat of Hampton serves as the focal point for this late-1970s survey, characterized by a grid-like settlement pattern atop the Iowa prairie. The landscape is defined by the agricultural and industrial infrastructure of Franklin County, with the Chicago and North Western railroad corridor providing a backbone for the transport of local commodities. Outside the primary hub, the smaller settlements of Geneva and Bradford anchor their respective townships, while the path of Maynes Creek carves a more organic trail through the rectangular fields. Cultural landmarks such as the Franklin Memorial Hospital and the Jr High Sch are clearly marked within the city, reflecting the community's post-war development. Several rural cemeteries, including Towle Cem and Maysville Cem, are preserved across the quadrangle, offering critical documentation for genealogical research and historical land use studies.
