2022 Map of Granville East

About this map

Granville anchors the northwestern corner of this agricultural region, where the prairie is defined by a precise grid of section lines and gravel roads. This 2022 survey captures the landscape at the intersection of Sioux, O'Brien, Plymouth, and Cherokee counties, a testament to the enduring township and range system. In this corner of Northwest Iowa, the small settlement of Germantown stands near Saint John Cem, while Saint Joseph Cem serves the community further west. The topography is shaped by the gentle drainage of several watercourses, including Mud Cr in the north and the winding path of Deep Cr through the center. In the south, the terrain descends toward Sand Field near the banks of Whiskey Cr, illustrating the subtle relief that dictates the placement of farmsteads and rural infrastructure across these fertile acres.
