About this map

Pomeroy anchors this section of Calhoun County, showcasing a landscape defined by the precision of Midwestern section lines and organized water management. The town is marked by essential local landmarks including the Pomeroy Post Office and multiple burial grounds such as Saint Marys Cemetery and Union Cemetery. To the north, the Elfsborg Lutheran Cemetery and the Swedish Mission Bethany Cemetery suggest a history of distinct congregational settlements among the agricultural blocks.

The natural hydrology of Lake Creek and the South Branch Lizard Creek is augmented by engineered solutions like Drainage Ditch Number 66, which reflects the long-term transformation of this terrain for intensive farming. Cultural centers like the Colfax Township Hall emphasize the civic organization of this rural area, while the meandering paths of the West Fork Camp Creek in the south provide a contrast to the rigid grid of county roads like Janesville Ave and 200th St.
