The Dutch-heritage city of Pella serves as the focal point of this 2018 survey, showcasing the community's expansion between the South Skunk River to the north and the expansive Lake Red Rock to the southwest. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of several local tributaries, including Lighting Cr, Thunder Cr, and Muchakinock Cr, which carve through the Iowa plains. For genealogists, the map is particularly valuable for its precise locations of numerous rural burial grounds such as Tlam Cem, Sand Ridge Cem, and Parsons Cem dotting the township lines.
