Mississippi River islands and complex side-channels define the western edge of this Henderson County landscape, where the town of Lomax sits on the bluffs overlooking the bottomlands. The settlement pattern follows the high ground east of the river, with small communities like Carman, Iowa Junction, and Shokokon connected by a network of rural roads. The area is rich in family and local history, as evidenced by numerous burial sites including Crane Cem, Freeland Cem, and Gittings Mound Cem.
