About this map

Clarinda anchors the southeastern corner of this Page County landscape, where the West Nodaway River and N Br W Nodaway River converge. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern of small creeks including E Tarkio Cr, Snake Cr, and Neele Br that carve through the agricultural uplands. Smaller settlements like Bethesda and Hepburn are connected by a rigid grid of rural roads such as Co Hwy M63 and 150 St, which frame the agricultural sections.

Genealogists will find several significant burial sites across the township, including the Clarinda Mental Health Institute Cem and the Immanual Lutheran Cem. The presence of Yaw-Hoo Field and various church-affiliated cemeteries like Bethesda Cem and Rose Hill Cem underscores the long-standing community structure in this part of southwestern Iowa, showing how local institutions remained centered around these small rural hubs into the 21st century.
