About this map

The English River meanders across this rural landscape, defining the character of the region south of Kalona. This 2010 survey documents a dense network of local cemeteries that anchor the history of Washington County, including Sharon Hill Cemetery, Snider Cemetery, and Middleburg Cemetery near the northern boundary. The town of Richmond sits further south, positioned between the branches of Camp Creek and English River.

Infrastructure for the local community is evident through features like the Kalona Airpark and the Kalona Post Office. The map captures the agricultural and recreational layout of the area, from the Kalona Golf Course to the Windmill Ridge Camp Ground. Numerous small waterways, such as Bulgers Run, Goose Creek, and North Fork Long Creek, crisscross the townships, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns that have shaped land use and settlement since the nineteenth century.
