Tipperary and Olmitz sit within the rural drainages of southern Iowa, surrounded by a complex network of creeks that define the local topography. This 2015 survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to its past through a concentration of pioneer-era burial grounds. Family historians and genealogists can identify several distinct cemeteries including Belinda Cem, Zion Cem, Bethel Cem, and the evocative Old Ireland Cem, which point to early settlement patterns in Lucas County.
