1972 Map of Kanawha
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
Kanawha serves as the primary hub of this North Central Iowa landscape, situated at the junction of several civil townships including Amsterdam, Magor, and Norway. The town's layout is closely tied to the Chicago and North Western railroad line, which cuts diagonally across the eastern plains. This era of agricultural development is defined by a sophisticated water management system, evident in the numerous tributaries of the Boone River, such as the East Branch Boone River and Middle Branch Boone River, as well as engineered features like Drainage DITCH NO 107. Outside of the main settlement, the smaller community of Denhart and a Township Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracking family locations within the Hancock and Wright County borderlands.
