2015 Map of Lacona

About this map

Lacona and Liberty Center anchor this agricultural landscape along the southern border of Warren and Lucas Counties. The map reveals a high density of rural burial grounds, including Saint Mary's Cem and Goodes Chapel Cem, providing essential markers for family historians tracing early Iowa lineage. The drainage pattern is defined by the winding paths of Wolf Cr, Cotton Cr, and Stony Cr, which cut through the township sections and shape the placement of the grid road network. Significant corridors like Hwy 65 and Co Rd G76 intersect the terrain, connecting the small town center of Lacona to the broader prairie landscape. The numerous cemeteries such as Arnold Cem and Fletcher Cem suggest long-established rural congregations and family homesteads that have persisted since the early days of settlement.
