1983 Map of Highland East

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Black Hawk Lake Recreation Area and the high ridges of Iowa County define this landscape in the early 1980s. The village of Highland sits at a crossroads in the western portion of the sheet, characterized by its high-elevation terrain and proximity to the Sunny Ridge divide. To the south, the smaller settlement of Edmund borders the map edge, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with several family and community landmarks essential for genealogical research. Local history is preserved through sites like St Malachy Cem, Blabaum Cem, and Mt Hope Cem. The topography is carved by numerous watercourses, including Pompey Pillar Creek and Narveson Creek, which feed into the central reservoir. The area's land use is evident in the scattered Quarry sites and distinctive natural landmarks like Maiden Rock and the towering Pompey Pillar.
