About this map

Allen Creek Chapel stands as a spiritual landmark in this 1971 survey of western Iowa, where the landscape is defined by the transition from the Monona Co Harrison Co line down into the township of Allen. The area is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Allen Creek, Willow Creek, and Elk Creek, which carved the drainage patterns that dictated early road placement and property boundaries. These physical features reflect the rural organization of several townships, including Spring Valley, Lincoln, and Magnolia. This map captures the agricultural footprint of the early 1970s, documented by photogrammetric methods to show the precise relationship between section lines, rural homesteads, and the winding path of Steer Creek and Thompson Creek.
