1956 Map of Ottumwa North

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Ottumwa serves as the industrial and transportation anchor of this mid-century landscape, positioned where multiple rail lines converge along the Des Moines River. The map captures a high density of civic and educational institutions during the 1950s, including Ottumwa Heights College, St Joseph Hospital, and Walsh High Sch. Outside the urban center, the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Cedar Creek and South Skunk River, supporting a network of small agricultural settlements like Hedrick, Martinsburg, and Fremont.
