1980 Map of New Market

About this map

The town of New Market serves as the primary hub of this Iowa landscape, where the township boundaries of Nodaway, Nebraska, Dallas, and Mason meet. The geography is defined by the winding course of the East River Nodaway along the western edge and the drainage of Buchanan Creek to the south. Historically significant local landmarks include several rural burial grounds such as Memory Cem, Oak Grove (Cem), and Vase Cem, which offer key points for genealogical research in Page and Taylor Counties. The presence of an old railroad grade running through the northern sections and a Sandpit near the river reflects the rural industrial and transportation patterns that shaped the region during this period of the late 1970s.
