About this map

The Mississippi River defines the southeastern edge of this Iowa landscape, where several large riverine features like Meredosia Island and Camanche Island segment the waterway near the Illinois border. This 2015 study shows the industrial and transport layout of southern Clinton and the riverfront city of Camanche, linked by the thoroughfare of Lincoln Way. The area is characterized by a high density of small rural settlements and hamlets, including Low Moor and Elvira to the west, and Shaffton and Folletts further south near Sadus Creek.

Genealogists can find numerous burial sites across the quadrangle, from the Clinton Memorial Cem in the city to rural plots like Elvira Cem and Shaffton Cem. The presence of the Clinton Municipal Airport and a complex grid of county highways, such as Co Hwy F12 and Co Hwy Z46, highlights the region's modern connectivity while preserving the historical footprints of the original farm-to-market road network.
