2010 Map of Glenwood

About this map

Glenwood serves as the primary hub in this southwestern Iowa landscape, defined by its traditional grid and community infrastructure including the Glenwood Post Office and the Glenwood Recreation Complex. To the northeast, the smaller settlement of Silver City sits near the banks of Silver Creek, anchored by the Silver City Post Office. The quadrangle reflects a deeply rooted agrarian history, evidenced by a high density of burial sites across the township. Genealogists may find particular value in the diverse types of resting places documented here, ranging from the Somar Family on Wright Farm Cemetery to the County Farm Cemetery and the State Cemetery. The terrain is drained by several waterways, most notably Keg Creek and Waubonsie Creek, which cut through a network of rural roads such as Dobney Ave and Hershey Ave.
