About this map

The East Nishnabotna River meanders south through Cass County, defining the agricultural landscape between the growing city of Atlantic and the smaller settlement of Wiota. In this 2010 survey, the rural character of the region is punctuated by a network of well-defined local roads like Hamburg Rd and Jackson Rd, which link scattered farmsteads and historical community anchors. Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented, including the Lorah Cemetery, Atlantic Cemetery, and Wiota Cemetery.

The map details the intersection of regional transport and local commerce, featuring the Wiota Post Office and the Northridge Speedway on the eastern edge of the quadrangle. Several watercourses, such as Troublesome Creek and Turkey Creek, provide a sense of the local hydrology that has shaped land use for generations. Small clusters of development like Sycamore Village and Lorah highlight the varied settlement patterns that exist outside the larger municipal centers.
