2010 Map of Rossville

About this map

Rossville and the nearby Dundee Plot serve as the primary hubs for this section of Allamakee County, where the landscape is defined by the deep incisions of the Yellow River and its numerous tributaries. The area's history is preserved in several burial grounds, including Ebenezer Cemetery and Smithfield Cemetery, often situated on the higher ground between the winding paths of Paint Creek and Bear Creek. The terrain reveals a complex network of springs and streams, such as Penny Springs and Norfolk Creek, which have influenced the local road system and settlement patterns. Tracing the courses of Williams Creek and Teeple Creek through the rural sections illustrates how the natural hydrology dictated the layout of farms and country roads like Breezy Corners Rd and Red School Rd in the early 21st century.
