Do you know of Idewild ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Idewild. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Idewild.<1>

Our sources for Idewild (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Idewild other than they indicate that Idewild would be found somewhere in Buchanan County, Iowa.
