1952 Map of New Virginia

About this map

New Virginia sits at the heart of this mid-century portrait of Warren and Clarke counties, where a dense network of country schools and rural churches defines the social fabric of the Iowa countryside. The landscape is deeply carved by the South River and its numerous tributaries, including Squaw Creek and the various branches of Otter Creek. A distinct rural school system is visible through local landmarks like Quiet Dell Sch, Indian Valley Sch, and the uniquely named Eggleston Grove Sch.
