2022 Map of Wellsburg
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
Wellsburg sits at the heart of this Grundy County landscape, serving as a concentrated hub of settlement amidst a grid of agricultural sections and rolling prairie drainages. The area is defined by the headwaters of several notable Iowa waterways, including Middle Fork S Beaver Cr, S Beaver Cr, and Black Hawk Cr. For genealogists and local historians, the map is particularly valuable for its documentation of community burial grounds and religious centers, such as Shiloh Cem and the Wellsburg Reformed Church Cem. The terrain includes distinctive landmarks like Tower Rock and is increasingly marked by modern energy infrastructure, indicated by numerous Wind Turbine Acc points that reflect the evolution of the rural economy. The strict rectilinear road system, featuring routes like Co RD d25 and Co RD t19, highlights the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on this part of the state.
