About this map

The Cedar River winds through the heart of this agricultural landscape in Mitchell County, Iowa, defining the local geography around the northern settlement of St Ansgar. To the southeast, the small community of Mitchell occupies a prominent bend in the river, while the tiny hamlet of Dixie sits at a rural crossroads further south. The map reveals a high concentration of historical burial sites tied to early Scandinavian and German heritage, including Blakestad Cemetery, Immanuel Cemetery, and Saint Johns Cemetery, which are scattered along the section lines and high ground near Willow Creek.
