2010 Map of New Hartford

About this map

New Hartford and the small settlement of Benson anchor this rural landscape where the West Fork Cedar River and Beaver Creek wind through the fertile plains of Black Hawk County. The map reveals a high density of rural burial grounds, including Oak Hill Cemetery and Bidwell Cemetery, which serve as vital landmarks for genealogists tracing early families in the region. The drainage patterns of Hammers Creek and the presence of small water bodies like Railroad Lake illustrate the local topography that shaped road placements and farm boundaries. Transportation and infrastructure are represented by the New Hartford Post Office and local aviation sites such as Bluebird Airport and Isley Field. The grid of county roads, including Utica Ave and Diagonal Rd, connects these scattered homesteads and community centers within a largely agricultural framework.
