2015 Map of Alloway Creek
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The Marshall County and Jasper County line divides this rural landscape, defined by the winding course of the North Skunk River and its numerous tributaries. Settled agricultural patterns are evident in the strict grid of rural roads like Marsh Ave and N 115th Ave E, which cross a terrain carved by Alloway Creek and Potato Creek. Local heritage is anchored by sites such as the German Society Methodist Cemetery and the Rushville Cemetery, providing touchstones for genealogical research in this part of central Iowa. Small water bodies like Ken Wolfe Lake punctuate the drainage basins of West Burr Oak Creek and Rock Creek, illustrating the natural water management of the region's farmland.
