2015 Map of Jefferson West

About this map

The North Raccoon River winds through this Greene County landscape, defining the topography south of the town of Jefferson. This 2015 survey reveals a classic Midwestern section-line grid, where rural life is anchored by family and community landmarks like Eureka Bridge and several burial grounds including Golgotha Cem, Fair Oaks Cem, and Wright Cem. The small settlement of Farlin sits near the center of the sheet, surrounded by agricultural fields and drainage networks like Drainage Ditch 171. To the north, the terrain softens around Goose Lake and the various branches of Hardin Cr. The map provides a look at the western reaches of Jefferson, showing a detailed street plan from W Lincolnway St down to W Russell St, documenting the town's expansion and its relationship with the river valley.
