The Des Moines River makes a dramatic oxbow turn around Keosauqua, the prominent county seat of Van Buren County. This 1960s landscape is characterized by a dense concentration of small family and community burial grounds, including Oak Lawn Cem, Purdom Cem, and Fellows Cem, which offer a clear map for genealogical research. The river bend dictates the town's orientation, with the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line cutting through the northeast corner across Washington township.
