1971 Map of Mapleton SE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Maple River valley and the high ground between it and the Soldier River define this rural Monona County landscape in the early 1970s. The northwest corner is marked by the presence of the Chicago and North Western railroad line, which follows the river's course past several Gravel Pits. Higher up in the township of Center, the Iowa State University Experimental Station stands as a focal point for agricultural study in the region. Local genealogy is anchored by several burial grounds including Center Cem, Jordan Cem, and Putman Cem. The terrain is dissected by numerous waterways such as McCleery Creek and Jordan Creek, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Loess Hills region prior to modern large-scale development.
