About this map

Lohrville serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Calhoun County, where the street grid of Maple St and Elm St meets the Lohrville Post Office. The surrounding countryside is defined by a strictly surveyed section-line road system, including named routes like Quinton Ave and Red Oak Ave, which connect smaller settlements such as Rands and Piper.

Waterways like Purgatory Creek and Lake Creek wind through the fields, providing a natural contrast to the geometric precision of the township lines. For those tracing family histories, the map identifies several local burial grounds, including Piper Cemetery, Logan Township Cemetery, Saint Joseph Cemetery, and Evergreen Cemetery. This survey documents a classic Iowa prairie landscape where established farmsteads and rural infrastructure have remained the cornerstone of the local community for generations.
