2015 Map of Waucoma

About this map

The Little Turkey River meanders through this portion of northeast Iowa, anchoring the settlement of Waucoma at a point where the river bends south through the Fayette County countryside. This landscape is defined by the tri-county corner where Winneshiek, Chickasaw, and Fayette counties meet. Further north, the rail-oriented junction of Jackson Junction sits along the section lines, reflecting the region's agricultural and transit roots. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly valuable for its documentation of rural cemeteries, including the C J Jack Farm Cem and several parish grounds such as Saint Marys Cem and Saint Rose Cem. The terrain is drained by tributaries like Simpson Cr and Dry Run, while the Lawrence Bridge provides a specific crossing point over the river north of the main village.
