2010 Map of Taylor

About this map

York Township Cemetery anchors the northern reaches of this Iowa landscape, providing a primary point of reference for genealogists and local historians tracing families in this part of Pottawattamie County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways including Keg Creek, Little Silver Creek, and Middle Silver Creek, which drain the agricultural land into Silver Creek to the southeast. The small community of Taylor sits in the southeastern corner of the quadrangle, serving as a hub for the surrounding rural sections. A rigid grid of section-line roads, such as Lombardy Rd, Idlewood Rd, and Dogwood Rd, overlays the undulating prairie topography, illustrating the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the modern transportation network and field patterns of the region.
