About this map

The Cedar River meanders through the northeastern corner of this Johnson County landscape, defined by a series of creek drainages including Rapid Cr, Jordan Cr, and Mill Cr. The town of Solon sits in the west, serving as a primary hub for the surrounding agricultural community. Significant for local historians and genealogists, the map identifies several local burial grounds such as Saint Marys Cem and Sutliff Cem, alongside the Saint Peter and Pauls Catholic Cem near the northern boundary with Linn County.

A notable landmark is the Sutliff Bridge which spans the river at the small settlement of Sutliff. The terrain is marked by a network of rural roads such as Sutliff Rd NE and Ivanhoe Rd, which follow the high ground between the various stream valleys. The southern portion of the sheet features the community of Morse, situated at the intersection of local routes near the headwaters of several small tributaries.
