2010 Map of Epworth

About this map

Epworth serves as the central hub of this Dubuque County landscape, where the local community is anchored by the Epworth Post Office and several longstanding religious sites. The surrounding countryside is defined by the winding paths of the Little Maquoketa River to the north and Whitewater Creek to the southeast. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout the quadrangle, including Saint Patricks Cemetery, Highview Cemetery, and the Saint Johns Catholic Placid Cemetery near the settlement of Pleasant Grove. The topography is marked by distinct drainages like Hogans Branch and Curran Branch, which cut through the agricultural sections. Smaller named locales such as Kidder and Lattnerville are connected by a network of rural routes, including the descriptively named Roller Coaster Rd, illustrating the undulating character of the Iowa terrain during the early 21st century.
