2010 Map of Missouri Valley NW

About this map

Magnolia and Calhoun serve as the primary focal points of this Harrison County landscape, where the agricultural grid is defined by a complex network of natural waterways and man-made drainage systems. The survey illustrates a terrain deeply modified for farming, featuring the East Soldier Ditch, Nelson Ditch, and Modale Ditch alongside natural courses like Steer Creek and Allen Creek. These drainage features indicate the persistent effort to manage the local watershed for cultivation in the Loess Hills region. Genealogists will find notable value in the inclusion of the Magnolia Cemetery and Calhoun Cemetery, while the small settlement of Echo remains marked in the northern portion of the map. The road network, including Florence Ave and Laredo Ave, follows the section lines, reinforcing the structured development of this rural Iowa territory.
