About this map

Pulaski serves as the primary hub of this southern Iowa landscape, situated in Prairie township just north of an Old RR Grade. The area is defined by its rural character and the multiple branches of the Wyaconda and Fox river systems that drain the territory. Small community anchors like the Stiles settlement and the Pulaski Ch provide key reference points for local history.

Several family-named landmarks and cemeteries, such as Armstrong Cem and Brown Cem, are distributed across the townships of Cleveland, Grove, and Union. Near the southern border, the Iowa-Missouri Camp and Wanetta Sch highlight the community’s social and educational infrastructure during this era. The map clearly documents the transition from rail dependence to a highway-based economy, with the former rail corridor still visible as it passes through the town of Pulaski.
