2018 Map of Woden

About this map

Woden stands as the primary settlement in this north-central Iowa landscape, positioned at the intersection of Bush Ave and 320th St. The surrounding countryside in Hancock and Kossuth Counties is defined by a precise rectilinear road grid that organizes the agricultural terrain. Several small waterways, including Buffalo Cr, Lindsey Cr, and Plum Cr, provide natural drainage through the section lines. This modern survey is a valuable resource for genealogists, as it identifies localized burial sites such as Bingham Township Cem to the south of Woden and the Christian Reformed Cem further west. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the Orthel Township Cem serves as another focal point for local family history research within this productive prairie region.
