2010 Map of Earlville

About this map

Earlville and the surrounding Delaware County landscape are defined by a grid of agricultural section roads and the winding course of the Maquoketa River. In the northern portion of the map, the town of Earlville serves as a local hub, featuring the Earlville Post Office and nearby Tri-State Raceway. Further south, the settlement of Delhi sits near the banks of the river, which widens into Hartwick Lake to the west. This area contains a high concentration of local burial grounds, including Saint Johns Cemetery, Evergreen Cemetery, and Saint Josephs Cemetery, providing significant points of interest for genealogists tracking early families in the region. The map also captures the path of Old Hwy 20 and the tributary waters of Penn Creek and Plum Creek, illustrating the intersection of historic transit routes and the natural drainage patterns of eastern Iowa.
