About this map

The Wapsipinicon River winds along the northern boundary of this Scott County landscape, defining the border with Clinton County. This rural Iowa territory is anchored by the small communities of Donahue, Maysville, and Buena Vista, showcasing a classic Midwestern grid of section roads and farmsteads. Public spaces like Buena Vista County Park and Allens Grove County Park offer recreational access to the river's edge, while smaller watercourses like Mud Creek and Hickory Creek drain the surrounding agricultural lands.

Local history is preserved in sites such as Allens Grove Cem, Burch Cem, and the Maysville Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research. Institutional landmarks like the John Glenn Sch in Donahue and the Stender Landing Field further inland illustrate the township's development. The map also documents modern utility infrastructure, including a prominent pipeline and a Pumping Station situated in the western portion of the quadrangle.
