1981 Map of Saratoga

About this map

The Little Wapsipinicon River meanders through the western half of this Howard County landscape, defining the rural character of the Jamestown and Saratoga townships. By the early 1980s, the area remained a network of family farms connected by a grid of section roads, with the community of Saratoga serving as a local hub near Lubbert Park. To the southeast, the small settlement of Maple Leaf sits near Roman Park, while the southern edge of the sheet captures the outskirts of Elma.
