2010 Map of Lebanon

About this map

Lebanon and Highland Park are the primary points of settlement in this rural Sioux County landscape, where the grid of sections is meticulously defined by a network of local roads including Dogwood Ave and Eagle Ave. The community's social and historical fabric is anchored by its religious and commemorative sites, such as the Lebaron Christian Reform Church and the adjacent Lebaron Christian Cemetery. Further east, the Peace Lutheran Cemetery serves as another quiet landmark within the agricultural expanse. The drainage patterns of the area are characterized by the meandering courses of Sixmile Creek and Dry Creek, which cut across the structured township lines. For genealogists, the inclusion of Highland Cemetery provides a specific point of interest for tracing early families in this corner of Iowa, illustrating a landscape where the placement of cemeteries and churches has long organized the rural population.
