2018 Map of Yale

About this map

Yale, Jamaica, and Herndon anchor this corner of the Iowa plains where Guthrie, Greene, and Dallas Counties meet. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and drainages of Mosquito Cr and Greenbrier Cr, with smaller tributaries like Bay Br and Fannys Br cutting through the agricultural sections. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, revealing a grid of section roads such as Victory Ave and Quest Ave that connect isolated farmsteads and cemeteries. Local heritage is preserved at sites like Richland Memorial Cem and Yale Cem. The mapping shows the continued significance of the historical township boundaries, including T82N R30W and T81N R29W, which have governed the layout of the land since the initial settlement.
