About this map

The winding course of Lizard Creek and its many tributaries, including the South Branch Lizard Creek, dominates this landscape at the intersection of Pocahontas, Webster, and Calhoun Counties. This area is defined by a rigorous grid of agricultural roads, such as Co Hwy P19 and 190th St, which partition the fertile prairie. Historical continuity is visible through several burial grounds that serve the surrounding townships, including Saint Patricks Cem and Lizard Cem. The drainage infrastructure, marked by features like Drainage Ditch Number 3 and Drainage Ditch 125, reveals the long-standing efforts to manage the wetlands for farming. This map provides a detailed view of rural Iowa's township structure, showing the precise boundaries of t90n r31w and t89n r30w as they were maintained in the early 21st century.
