1993 Map of Jackson

About this map

Jackson and Hubbard anchor this corner of Dakota County, where the transition from the bluffs to the Missouri River floodplain defines the local geography. The landscape is marked by the presence of St Johns Cem north of Jackson and St Marys Cem near Hubbard, serving as significant markers for genealogists and local historians. This era shows a community structured by established routes like Knox Boulevard and the North Bluff Road, which follows the contours between the rolling highlands and the flat bottomlands. To the northeast, the Missouri River and Big Sioux meet near the border with Union County, South Dakota, highlighting the importance of the river system. The drainage network, including Elk Creek, Pigeon Creek, and the Pigeon Creek Ditch, reflects the ongoing efforts to manage the water levels of the surrounding agricultural lands protected by a local Levee.
