About this map

Milton serves as the primary hub of activity in this rural pocket on the Davis Co Van Buren Co line. The town's grid is defined by streets like W Old Main St and E Harrison St, with the Sunnyside Cem and Oaks Cem situated on its periphery. The surrounding landscape is a network of township and range sections drained by the Fox River and the meandering Little Fox River.

Genealogical interest is particularly high here due to the density of family and community burial grounds dotting the countryside. From the Amish Mennonite Church Cem west of town to remote plots like Stookesberry Cem, Wheaton Cem, and Richardson Cem, these markers provide a clear look at the settlement patterns of early Iowa farming families. Further north, Hickory Cr and the N Wyaconda River frame the agricultural outskirts.
