About this map

The boundary between Buena Vista and Sac Counties divides this agricultural landscape, where the town of Schaller sits at the southern edge of the survey. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of several watercourses, including the Little Maple River in the north and the Boyer River in the southeast corner. A systematic grid of section roads, such as Co Hwy M27 and Co Hwy N27, provides access to numerous family farms and local burial grounds that anchor the rural community.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several dedicated sites including the Saint John Lutheran Cem, Maple Valley Cem, and the Saint Josephs Catholic Church Cem. These features, along with the Schaller Cem near the town center, represent the long-standing community centers of the region. The map also traces the headwaters of Halfway Cr, which meanders through the central sections of this fertile Iowa prairie land.
