About this map

Shenandoah anchor this portion of Page County, Iowa, showing the city's eastern expansion along a grid of historic streets and avenues. The landscape is defined by the broad drainage basin of the East Nishnabotna River, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Rocky Br, Eightmile Br, and Fourmile Cr. To the north, the town of Essex is clearly mapped with its residential layout near the Essex Cem.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds documented across the rural townships, including Rose Hill Cem in the south and the Saint John Evangelical Lutheran Cem further north. The presence of the Wabash Trce indicates the conversion of former rail corridors into modern transport or recreational paths, while the dense network of section-line roads like 180 St and 120 St illustrates the enduring survey patterns of the Iowa countryside.
