About this map

Malvern and Randolph anchor this agricultural landscape along the winding corridor of the West Nishnabotna River. The map highlights a rural section of southwest Iowa where the river and its tributaries, such as Silver Creek and Mule Cr, have shaped the placement of early settlements and cemeteries. Genealogists will find critical reference points in the Malvern Cem, Parker Cem, and Riverside Cem, which are positioned near historic town sites like White Cloud and Strahan. The transition from natural watercourses to managed agricultural drainage is visible through features like the Kilpatrick Ditch, while the boundary between Mills and Fremont Counties marks the southern portion of the sheet. The grid of country roads, including Waubonsie Ave and Mulloney Ave, connects these small communities and isolated farmsteads, documenting the enduring spatial organization of the Iowa prairie.
