Title

Rochester, IA, 1913 map; Scott Township; Mahaska County; Iowa

Description

Rochester was established as a community in 1850 and served as a major trading center between Eddyville to the southeast and Bellefountaine to the northwest. When transportation needs outside of water changed, the town dried up as families moved away by the early 1880's.
