About this map

The Iowa River meanders through the heart of Marshall County, defining the geography of Marshalltown and its northern neighbors. This 21st-century survey documents a regional hub where urban infrastructure meets the alluvial plains of Asher Creek and Chicken Creek. The layout of the city is meticulously detailed, showing the concentration of civic life along West Main Street and the sprawling residential blocks bounded by Linn Creek to the south.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds across the landscape, from the Soldier's Home Cemetery near the river to the Rose Hill Memorial Gardens Cemetery on the city's southern edge. The map also captures the outlying settlements of Albion and Marietta, providing a clear look at the rural road networks like Sand Road and County Highway S75 that connect these smaller communities to the Marshalltown Municipal Airport and the greater county seat.
