October 9, 2020: Imagine the middle line on this LGS on IA 92 at IA 28 pointing to Yaggy.
Winterset Madisonian, December 8, 1910:
Where is Yaggy? What is Yaggy? Yaggy is a town, and a town right in our midst, and but few of us know anything about it. It is located right near the Madison county line to the east and heretofore has been known as the Osceola crossing, the Burlington junction and officially the M., I. & N. crossing until recently there was a joint convention of the officials of the Rock Island-Burlington officials at which [it] was ordained that this important railroad point should hereafter be called Yaggy. And so it is that Yaggy it is. Three round trip tickets for Yaggy; all aboard for Yaggy; and so here we go.
Des Moines Register, March 21, 1915:
Petitions railroad to establish station
Town of Martensdale, Year Old, Urges Great Western Officials to Act.
The Chicago Great Western railroad has been petitioned by the new town of Martensdale to establish a station there, and representatives of that road have been inspecting the possibilities of the situation during the last few days. Decision as to whether it will be profitable to establish the station will be rendered later by the management of the road. Martensdale came into existence as a town about a year ago under the name of Yaggy, recently changed to its present official name.
According to the Iowa Secretary of State’s Office, Martensdale was incorporated on October 29, 1920.
