1970 Map of Jackson
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Des Moines River carves a deep valley through this landscape on the Minnesota-Iowa border, anchoring the city of Jackson and the smaller settlement of Petersburg. By the early 1970s, the area's geography reflected a mix of municipal development and agricultural utility, with local infrastructure including a Powerplant, Sewage Disposal Ponds, and an extensive Pipeline route. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, documenting several distinct burial grounds such as Riverside Cem, Sunset Cem, Hillside Cem, and Good Shepherd Cem clustered near the main townsite.
