2018 Map of Whittemore

About this map

The town of Whittemore serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape along the border of Palo Alto and Kossuth counties. This 2018 survey reveals a meticulously organized grid of section-line roads, including Works Rd, 220th St, and 580th Ave, that navigate the drainage patterns of the region. The map highlights the essential local heritage found in three distinct burial grounds: Saint Michaels Cem to the northwest of town, and both Whittemore Cem and Saint Pauls Cem situated closer to the settlement's core. Water management is a defining characteristic of the terrain, visible through the meandering paths of Lotts Cr and Prairie Cr, as well as the engineered flow of Ditch Number 79, reflecting the region's long-standing commitment to productive prairie farmland.
