2010 Map of Lake Park SE

About this map

Stony Lake and the meandering headwaters of Stony Creek define the geography of this Dickinson County landscape, where the prairie has been meticulously organized into a grid of section-line roads. This 2010 survey shows the quiet rural character of the area, punctuated by small settlements like Hagerty and Wallace. For the genealogist, the map identifies key burial grounds such as the Excelsior Township Cemetery in the northern reaches and the Westport Cemetery near the center of the quadrangle. The drainage pattern is a central feature of the terrain, with Stony Creek flowing south toward its confluence with the Little Sioux River at the map's southern edge. The distribution of structures along routes like 130th Ave and 260th St provides a clear view of the modern agricultural footprint in this corner of Iowa.
