2022 Map of Red Oak North

About this map

Red Oak sits at the southern edge of this survey, where the valley of the East Nishnabotna River meets several small tributaries like Red Oak Cr and Cook Cr. This area of Montgomery County is characterized by a high density of small, often family-linked burial sites scattered across the township lines. Beyond the large Evergreen Cem in town, the map documents several secluded locations, including the Indian Graveyard near Stennett and the specific site of the Mrs Frank Hacffich and Infant Grave. These markers, along with the L Laire Property Cem and Shank Cem, provide significant data for genealogical research in this part of Iowa. The landscape is structured by a grid of rural routes such as Co Hwy M55 and Ratliff Rd, connecting these historic sites to the commercial hub around the Southwestern Community College Red Oak Center.
