2018 Map of Dows East

About this map

Dows and Coulter anchor this agricultural landscape along the county line between Wright and Franklin counties. The Iowa River meanders through the southwestern corner, while Maynes Creek cuts across the northern section near Coulter. This 2018 survey reveals a well-established rural grid defined by roads like Wright Avenue and Eagle Avenue, supporting a network of long-standing community centers. Local heritage is preserved in several rural burial grounds, including Saint Peter's Lutheran Cemetery and Mount Hope Cemetery. The presence of the Morgan Township Hall further emphasizes the administrative and social structure of this Midwestern farming region, where the terrain is punctuated by small water bodies and the intersections of county highways like County Highway S13.
