2018 Map of Iconium

About this map

The settlement of Iconium and the village of Tyrone anchor this landscape along the border of Monroe and Appanoose Counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Mormon Br, Honey Cr, and Cedar Cr, which flow toward the southern edge of the map where the waters meet Rathbun Lake. This area is particularly rich in genealogical data, containing seven distinct burial grounds such as Iconium Cem, Salem Cem, and Inghram Cem that dot the countryside. The road network, comprising local routes like Mud Rd and Antler Trl, follows the high ground between the various creek branches, illustrating the traditional rural development patterns of southern Iowa. The map provides a detailed view of the interface between agricultural upland and the recreation-rich shoreline of the reservoir.
