About this map

The Des Moines River flows through the center of this northern Webster County landscape, serving as the primary geographical anchor for the city of Fort Dodge. The area is marked by a dense concentration of burial grounds concentrated along the river bluffs and city periphery, including Saint Paul Cemetery, North Lawn Cemetery, and Corpus Christi Cemetery. These sites, alongside others like Saint Olafs Cemetery and Concordia Cemetery, provide significant data points for local genealogical research.

Industrial and municipal infrastructure is well-defined, from the Fort Dodge Municipal Airport to the northwest to the recreational spaces at Lakeside Municipal Golf Course and the Harlan Rogers Sports Complex. Smaller settlements such as Badger to the north and Latham to the west are connected by a rigid grid of rural roads, including National Ave and Paragon Ave, while numerous watercourses like Badger Creek and Soldier Creek drain the agricultural surroundings into the main river valley.
