About this map

Danbury stands at the confluence of the Maple River and several tributary creeks during the late 1960s, serving as a concentrated hub of settlement in a landscape defined by its river valleys. The town is marked by its position along the Chicago and North Western railroad and contains several local landmarks, including a designated Park and sewage disposal infrastructure.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the cluster of burial sites just north of the town center, including St Marys Cem, St Patricks Cem, and Danbury Cem. Further south, the rural landscape transition is documented as the map moves from Garfield toward the Soldier River valley, where the Hartleben Cem sits near Rush Creek. The map provides a precise look at the township boundaries between Woodbury, Monona, Crawford, and Ida counties.
