2015 Map of Williamsburg NW

About this map

Genoa Bluff and its surrounding countryside represent a classic slice of rural Iowa County, defined by a rolling landscape carved by numerous named waterways. The drainage pattern here is particularly dense, with Old Mans Cr, Big Bear Creek, and Devils Run winding through the townships, while Lake Iowa serves as a prominent local landmark. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet preserves the locations of several burial grounds, including the Zion Reformed Church Cem and the Genoa Bluffs Cem. The map illustrates a strictly organized grid of rural roads like 200th St and CC Ave that cut across the natural topography, showing how the midwestern section-line system interacts with the uneven terrain of the creek valleys such as Hog Run and Pig Cr.
