2015 Map of Woden

About this map

Woden stands as the primary community in this section of north-central Iowa, situated along the northern tier of Hancock County. The landscape is defined by the agricultural grid of the Public Land Survey System, with the Kossuth Co Hancock Co boundary running vertically through the western portion of the map. This 2015 data illustrates a rural landscape where drainage is managed by several winding watercourses, including Buffalo Cr, Lindsey Cr, and Plum Cr. In the eastern section, Lake George provides a rare natural water body among the sectioned fields. For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies several rural burial grounds that serve as landmarks for the surrounding townships, specifically the Bingham Township Cem, the Christian Reformed Cem, and the Orthel Township Cem located further south along Deer Ave.
