About this map

The Cannon River valley in Dakota County is the primary geographic feature of this 2010 topographic study, which highlights a landscape of orderly agricultural grid systems and quiet rural hamlets. The village of Randolph sits at the confluence of several watercourses, including the meandering Chub Creek and its north branch, serving as a local hub with its Randolph Post Office. To the north, the small settlement of Hampton is anchored by Saint Mathias Cemetery, while the western edge of the quadrangle is marked by Castle Rock.

Genealogists will find this sheet particularly valuable for its documentation of numerous burial grounds scattered across the countryside, including the Hillcrest Cemetery, McNutt Cemetery, Kibbe Cemetery, and the Redrose Cemetery near the southern border. The transition from the South Branch Vermillion River in the north to the broader river bottoms in the south illustrates the hydrological patterns that have shaped this region's development.
