2010 Map of Fayette

About this map

The Volga River and its multiple tributaries, including Little Volga River, Grannis Creek, and Alexander Creek, define the topography around the city of Fayette. This university town is centered on the campus of Upper Iowa University, with the Fayette Post Office and nearby Grandview Cemetery serving as local landmarks. The landscape is a structured grid of rural roads like Jade Rd and Hill Rd, reflecting the agricultural character of Fayette County. North of the city, the small settlement of Albany sits near the Volga River Campground, where the river makes a series of sharp bends. Genealogists may find value in the clear locations of Saint Francis Cemetery and other burial grounds, while the inclusion of older routes like Old Hwy 150 N provides a look at the area's evolving transportation network.
