The Des Moines River cuts through this corner of Southeast Iowa, anchoring the town of Eldon, while the historic community of Ashland and the city of Batavia sit further north. This area is a significant landscape for genealogists, as it preserves the locations of numerous burial grounds scattered across the townships, including the Iowaville Cem and Ellsworth Cem. The terrain is defined by the drainage basins of Rock Cr, Chippewa Cr, and Stump Cr as they flow toward the river valley.
