1956 Map of Ottumwa South

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Ottumwa anchors the northern edge of this mid-1950s survey, where the Des Moines River bends past the Wabash railroad line. The landscape south of the city reveals a dense network of rural infrastructure, from the Drive-in Theater near the river to the scattered crossroads of Ormanville and Carbon. Educational and spiritual life is well-documented through a high concentration of country schoolhouses like Hazel Dell Sch and Hickory Flat Sch, alongside the Zion Ch and Sherman Chapel.
