1980 Map of Canton

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The North Fork Maquoketa River and the main Maquoketa River dominate this Jones County landscape, where winding watercourses have carved dramatic bluffs and hollows into the eastern Iowa terrain. Small rural settlements and crossroads like Canton and Clay Mills anchor the region, reflecting the nineteenth-century agricultural and milling history of Clay and Washington townships. The map documents several distinctive geologic landmarks along the river bends, including Sawyers Rock, Eagle Rock, and Poker Rock.
