2018 Map of Dumont North

About this map

Dumont and Bristow anchor this agricultural landscape in Butler County, where the terrain is defined by the winding course of the West Fork Cedar River and its various tributaries. The map reveal a pattern of settlement and burial grounds essential for local history, including the Needham Cem and Oak Hill Cem. To the north, the small community of Aredale sits near the edge of the survey, connected by a rigid grid of section-line roads like Co Rd T16 and Ivy Ave. Creeks such as Parmentar Cr and Boylan Cr cut through the farmland, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped Iowa's farming heritage for generations. The abundance of cemeteries, including the Old Bristow Cem and South Bristow Cem, provides a detailed record of the families who established these rural townships.
