2015 Map of Dyersville West

About this map

The North Fork Maquoketa River carves a path through the eastern portion of this landscape, anchoring the settlements of Dyersville, Rockville, and Worthington. This agricultural region on the border of Delaware and Dubuque counties is defined by a dense grid of range roads and creek systems, including Plum Creek and Cooksley Cr. The map captures the interface between traditional town centers and modern infrastructure, evidenced by the Dyersville Area Airport and the expansion of residential streets such as 8th Ave NW and 18th Ave SW. Genealogical interest is found in local landmarks like Saint Francis Cem and Rockville Cem, which preserve the history of the families that established these farming communities. The small settlement of Gilt Edge sits centrally, illustrating the persistent network of smaller locales that define rural Iowa.
