About this map

Malone serves as the central hub of this eastern Iowa landscape, situated just north of the winding Wapsipinicon River. The map captures a transition between the organized agriculture of De Witt and Eden townships and the complex marshlands of the river basin. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites documented across the countryside, including the Pelham Cem, Cousin-Smith Cem, and the uniquely named Bowers-Dannatt-Hill Cem.

Water drainage patterns define the local geography, with Cherry Creek and Brophy Creek carving paths toward the southern river valley. Local recreation and transit are marked by Malone Park and a Boat Ramp on the Wapsipinicon, alongside modern infrastructure like the prominent Pipeline corridors and the roadside rest areas that supported late 20th-century travel through Clinton and Scott Counties.
