2010 Map of Fenton

About this map

The town of Fenton serves as the primary hub of this agricultural landscape in Kossuth County, established on a grid of section lines that define the local terrain. The community is anchored by the Fenton Post Office and nearby Saint Johns Cemetery, illustrating the long-standing settlement patterns of the Iowa prairie. To the southwest, the small settlement of Fairville sits near the Saint Lukes Cemetery, marking another historic point of interest for researchers tracing the development of rural townships. The drainage of the land is defined by the winding paths of Black Cat Creek and Lotts Creek, which break the rigid geometry of the gravel road network. These waterways and the presence of the United Methodist Cemetery provide a clear view of the region's geography at the start of the 21st century, where the landscape remains dominated by expansive farmland and small, persistent rural centers.
