Miles and Van Buren serve as the primary hubs in this Jackson County landscape, situated where the terrain begins to drop toward the Maquoketa River valley in the north. The area is defined by a dense network of local family history, evidenced by an unusual concentration of small burial grounds such as Horst Farm Cem, Watts Farm Cem, and Schroeder Farm Cem. These sites, often situated on high ground between the drainage of Copper Cr and the N Br Elk River, reflect the deep-rooted agricultural settlement patterns of eastern Iowa.
