2010 Map of Jewell

About this map

Jewell serves as the primary hub of this Hamilton County landscape, situated where the grid of rural farm roads meets the more concentrated street plan of the town. This 2010 survey illustrates a region defined by agricultural drainage and significant glacial water bodies, including the prominent Little Wall Lake to the south and the smaller Goose Lake to the east. The presence of the Jewell Post Office and Evergreen Cemetery provides essential landmarks for family history research and local geocoding. The terrain is further shaped by water management features like the Grove Branch Ditch and the natural winding path of Keigley Branch in the southwest corner. The transition from high-density farming along routes like Neely Ave and Poplar Grove Ave to the residential pocket of the town illustrates the 21st-century agricultural character of central Iowa.
