2010 Map of Barnes City

About this map

Barnes City and the town of Deep River anchor this rural Poweshiek County landscape in the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the South English River in the south and the Deep River watercourse further north, alongside smaller tributaries like Jordan Creek and Pleasant Creek. These waterways dictate the subtle variations in the agricultural grid, which is otherwise dominated by named roads like Barnes City Rd and V18 Rd. Genealogists will find a cluster of significant burial sites, including the Barnes City Cemetery, Lisor Cemetery, Light Cemetery, and Harper Cemetery, scattered throughout the farming country. The civic heart of the southern settlement is centered on the Barnes City Post Office, while the inclusion of East Field marks local landmarks within the broader township structure.
