2010 Map of Wyoming East

About this map

The agrarian landscape of Jones County unfolds around the small Iowa settlements of Wyoming and Monmouth. This 2010 survey illustrates a region shaped by its watercourses, most notably Bear Creek and Beers Creek, which wind through a patchwork of rural roads and section lines. For genealogists, the map is a significant resource, documenting several historic burial grounds including South Mineral Cemetery to the north and Monmouth Cemetery on the eastern edge of its namesake town. The layout of the rural road network, featuring names like Pleasant Ridge Rd and Bunker Hill Rd, highlights the established nature of these farming communities. The central hub of Monmouth is further detailed by the location of the Monmouth Post Office, anchoring the town's local identity within the wider landscape of eastern Iowa.
