2010 Map of Donaldson

About this map

Yellow River meanders across the southern reach of this landscape, anchoring a rural Marshall County district defined by small farming hamlets and early transportation corridors. The historic W Lincoln Hwy and Lincoln Hwy cut through the northern section, passing by the settlement of Donaldson and the nearby Donaldson Cemetery. This map provides a clear look at the water management patterns of the early 21st century, with numerous drainage works like Bartinger Ditch and Harry Cool Ditch feeding into natural basins like Eagle Lake and Pretty Lake. Local industry and history are visible in the eastern section near Zehner Millpond, where both the Zehner Millpond Dam and Lake Latonka Dam regulate the flow. Genealogists will find several family and community burial sites, including Mount Carmel Cemetery and McElrath Cemetery, alongside the small crossroads of Burr Oak and Hibbard.
