About this map

Saint Donatus stands as a focal point in the northeastern corner of this Jackson County landscape, characterized by its deep religious and community heritage. The area is defined by its Catholic roots, evidenced by the Way of the Cross and the Saint Donatus Catholic Cemetery. To the southwest, the town of La Motte serves as another primary settlement, home to the East Hill Catholic Cemetery.

A network of local waterways, including Tete des Morts Creek, Mill Creek, and Farmers Creek, carves through the sectioned Iowa farmland. The map also documents smaller, specialized landmarks like Freedom Field, the Hoff Airport, and the Federman Farm Cemetery, which highlight the intersection of private land use and rural infrastructure. Transportation is dominated by a grid of numbered avenues and named routes like Centerville Rd and Bellevue-Cascade Rd.
