2015 Map of Rising Sun
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The Des Moines River and its confluence with the North River define the southern landscape of this Polk and Warren County region. These waterways have historically shaped the settlement patterns of towns like Adelphi and Hastie, while the northern uplands show the residential expansion of Woodland Hills and the community of Rising Sun. The map documents a significant concentration of small, family-named burial grounds, including the Stuart Cem, Canfield Cem, and Wicker Cem, which provide essential touchstones for genealogical research in this part of Iowa.
