About this map

Ireton serves as the primary hub of this northwestern Iowa landscape, established with a grid of numbered streets and avenues. The town’s social and historical fabric is anchored by landmarks like the Saint Pauls Lutheran Ch and the adjacent Pleasant Hill Cem. The terrain is defined by a series of north-south drainage patterns, where Indian Cr and Spring Cr carve through the agricultural uplands.

Further south, the boundary between Sioux Co and Plymouth Co cuts across the map at 100th St, leading toward the smaller settlement of Craig. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating rural burial grounds including Dunkard Cem and Saint Johns Cem. The rigid section-line road network, featuring routes like Co Rd B58 and Co Hwy K30, illustrates the enduring impact of the Public Land Survey System on the modern Iowa prairie.
