About this map

Kimballton anchors the southern edge of this West Central Iowa landscape, situated where the rolling drainage of Indian Cr meets the local road network. The map reveals a deeply etched agricultural territory divided by the Shelby Co and Audubon Co line, with small rural nodes like Fiscus and Poplar serving as historical touchpoints for the surrounding farmsteads.

A network of named streams, including the E Br W Nishnabotna River and Lone Willow Cr, carves through the terrain, dictating the placement of early cemeteries and settlements. Genealogists will find several well-placed burial grounds such as Immanuel Cem, Merrills Grove Cem, and Ebenezer Cem. The prevalence of systematically named thoroughfares like Odense St and Sharon Rd reflects the organized township expansion that has defined this region since its initial settlement.
