2018 Map of Wheatland

About this map

The Wapsipinicon River meanders through the heart of this East-Central Iowa landscape, defining the transition between the agricultural uplands and the river valley. The town of Wheatland serves as a central hub, flanked by the smaller settlements of Calamus to the east and Big Rock at the southern boundary. This map reveals a high density of small rural burial sites that offer a localized record of early settlement patterns, including Saint Pauls Cem, Dubois Cem, and Kuebler Cem. The transportation network is built upon a grid of local roads like 210th St and 120th Ave, while the High Rock Bridge provides a vital crossing over the river. Tributaries such as Yankee Run and Calamus Cr cut through the terrain, illustrating the natural drainage system that has influenced the placement of these historic communities and their shared borders across Clinton Co and Scott Co.
