2015 Map of Knoxville NW

About this map

Red Rock Lake and the Des Moines River dominate this Central Iowa landscape, illustrating a complex hydrological system of tributary creeks and floodplains. The map reveals a high density of rural burial grounds, including Pleasant Hill Cem, Hughes Cem, and Dunreath Cem, providing valuable spatial data for family historians and genealogists researching the residents of northwestern Knoxville Township. The terrain is deeply dissected by numerous watercourses such as Calhoun Cr, Prairie Cr, and Wildcat Cr, which have shaped the local road network and land divisions. Modern infrastructure is represented by a grid of county highways and local routes like Co HWY s45 and Illinois Dr, which navigate the elevation changes between the river valley and the surrounding agricultural uplands.
