Strand was an unincorporated community in Adams County, Iowa, United States.
The community of Strand was founded by Norwegian settlers. The Strand Lutheran Church began services on May 21, 1875,[1] and still has an active congregation today; in 1998, the Strand Church had 121 members.[2]
The post office at Strand was established in 1889, and operated until 1903[3] or 1909, closing with the introduction of rural free delivery.
The Lovig Store in Strand operated in the late 1800s, and changed hands in 1895.[4]
Strand's population was 28 in 1902,[5] and 25 in 1924.[6]
Strand appeared on some maps of Iowa in the early 20th century,[7] but the community went into decline; the church and cemetery remain.
