About this map

Rudd and Nora Springs anchor the southern portion of this Floyd County landscape, connected by the path of US Hwy 18 Bus. The area is characterized by a dense grid of agricultural roads, including Mitchell Line St and Dancer Ave, which segment the terrain around winding watercourses like Rock Creek, Flood Creek, and the Shell Rock River.

A strong genealogical record is preserved across the township through numerous burial grounds, such as the Rock Creek Evangelical Lutheran Cemetery, Oscar Peterson Cemetery, Eden Cemetery, and West End Cemetery. Near the southern border, the legacy of earlier settlement is evident at Rock Grove City, while local infrastructure is represented by the Rudd Post Office and the small Folkerts Airport. This survey provides a clear view of the rural Iowa landscape just after the turn of the 21st century, detailing the enduring placement of family cemeteries and farm-to-market roads.
