2015 Map of Keystone North

About this map

Keystone serves as the primary hub of this Benton County landscape, situated at the southern edge of a survey defined by its agricultural grid and gentle drainage systems. The northern reaches of the area are bisected by Mud Cr, while Prairie Cr meanders through the southern townships, tracing the low-lying contours of the farmland. This 2015 data illustrates a rural Iowa community organized around a strict section line road system, including key routes like Co Hwy E30 and Co Trunk Hwy V54. For local historians and genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its precise placement of several rural burying grounds. Smaller family or community landmarks, such as Bishop Grove Cem in the north, LaRue Cem to the east, and Bender Cem near the central-east boundary, provide essential reference points for tracing the early settlement patterns of the region.
