2015 Map of Ridgeway

About this map

The town of Ridgeway serves as the primary hub in this portion of Winneshiek County, situated along the Soo Line Railroad St and Co Hwy A46. The surrounding landscape is defined by a dense network of country roads and creek drainage systems, including Walnut Cr and Ten Mile Cr. This 2015 survey reveals a significant concentration of burial sites throughout the rural townships, suggesting the deep roots of established farming communities. Genealogists can identify the locations of Orleans Cem, Madison Cem, East Madison Cem, and the Madison Settlement Cem. Smaller tributaries like Burr Oak Cr and Dry Run carve through the agricultural blocks, while infrastructure landmarks such as the Ten Mile Creek Bridge mark important crossing points in this northern Iowa countryside.
