About this map

Five distinct rural burial grounds anchor this Woodbury County landscape, providing a clear geographic record of early local families. Fairfield Cem and Pleasant Hill Cem sit amongst the section lines, while Wolf Creek Cem and Lucky Valley Cem follow the southern drainages. These sites, including Mount Saint Joseph Cem in the southeast corner, often mark the locations of former community centers and long-standing rural parishes.

The terrain is defined by the branching waters of Wolf Cr and its tributaries, including E Br Wolf Cr and E Fork Wolf Cr. This network of creeks dictates the path of local routes like Co Hwy D30 and Co Hwy D38, which connect various township sections. The map reveals a strictly organized grid of gravel and paved roads, such as Kossuth Ave and Lucas Ave, that still governs the agricultural life of this section of northwestern Iowa.
