1972 Map of Titonka

About this map

Titonka serves as the central hub of this North Central Iowa landscape, situated along the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line. The map reveals a highly structured agricultural environment defined by township boundaries like Portland, Buffalo, and Plum Creek. This 1970s survey illustrates a region where water management is critical to the local economy, evidenced by features such as Ditch No 84 and numerous drainage patterns connecting to Buffalo Creek and Lindsey Creek. Local social and historical points are marked by the Doan Ch in the southern portion and the Good Hope Cem near the town center. The presence of a dedicated Landing Strip and several Gravel Pits reflects the area's mid-century rural infrastructure and local industry during this period.
