2018 Map of Red Oak South

About this map

Red Oak anchors the northern reaches of this survey where the East Nishnabotna River winds through the landscape. The terrain south of the city is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Mormon Br and Ashby Cr, which carve through the farmland of Montgomery and Page Counties. This 2018 record captures the rural character of southwestern Iowa, marked by the small settlement of Nyman and several community landmarks. Genealogy researchers will find several notable burial sites positioned along the section lines, including Hewitt Cem near the river and the secluded Plum Thicket Cem. Further south near the county boundary, the Mount Hope Cem and Fremont Township Cem serve as quiet touchstones for the area's local history. The land is organized by a strictly gridded road system, with thoroughfares like Co Hwy H46 and 110th St providing access to the fertile valleys of the Tarkio River basin.
