2010 Map of Le Grand

About this map

The Iowa River meanders through this agricultural landscape of central Iowa, defining the geography between Green Mountain and the town of Le Grand. This area is marked by a high density of rural burial grounds, including the Le Grand Friends Cemetery, Iowa River Brethren Cemetery, and Quinn Cemetery, which offer valuable locations for genealogical research into the region's early Quaker and Brethren settlers. The settlement of Quarry sits south of the river, near its namesake industrial site, while the Le Grand Post Office and Green Mountain Post Office anchor their respective communities. Numerous tributaries, such as Burnett Creek, Timber Creek, and Rock Creek, feed into the river valley, crisscrossed by a grid of local roads like Wallace Ave and Zeller Ave that have guided the township's development for generations.
