2015 Map of Delmar North

About this map

Dark Hollow and the winding course of the Maquoketa River define the northern reaches of this landscape along the border of Jackson and Clinton Counties. The area is exceptionally dense with small family and township burial grounds, reflecting the deep agrarian roots of eastern Iowa. Notable sites include the Fairfield Township Cem, Richardson Farm Cem, and Saint Patricks Cem, many located near early farmsteads and rural crossroads. The southern portion of the map centers on the town of Delmar, a local hub where the grid of streets like Market St and Center St meets the surrounding fields. Smaller rail-adjacent communities such as Riggs and Browns sit further east, connected by a network of gravel roads including Iron Bridge Rd and 100th St. Waterways like Sugar Cr and Rock Cr cut through the township lines, providing drainage for the productive farmland that occupies the majority of the terrain.
