2018 Map of Washington

About this map

The city of Washington serves as the central hub for this part of Southeast Iowa, where a dense grid of streets like W Main St and E Madison St transitions into a landscape of geometric agricultural plots. The area is defined by its dendritic drainage patterns, with the West Fork Crooked Creek and S Fork Long Cr carving through the prairie soil. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed regarding local burial sites, documenting Woodlawn Cem, Elm Grove Cem, and the uniquely named County Farm Cem northwest of the city center. This late-2010s survey captures the region's modern infrastructure, from the Washington Municipal Airport to the extensive county road network including Riverside Rd and Lexington Blvd, while preserving the traditional township and range divisions of T75N and T76N that have shaped Iowa's land use for generations.
