2022 Map of Tipton West

About this map

Tipton serves as the focal point of this western Cedar County survey, featuring the Cedar County Courthouse at its heart. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Rock Creek and its many tributaries, including W Rock Cr and Rock Run Cr, which carve through the Iowa prairie. The settlement pattern reveals the enduring agricultural roots of the region, anchored by small communities like Buchanan and the crossroads at Wald. Genealogy and local history researchers will find a significant concentration of burial sites, ranging from the Tipton Masonic Cem and Saint Marys Cem to the isolated Wood Bridge Cem. The inclusion of the Mathews Memorial Airport and a dense network of county roads like Co HWY f28 illustrates the modernization of transport across these traditional townships.
