About this map

State Center anchors this Marshall County landscape, showing its organized street grid and the State Center Post Office at the start of the 2010s. The region is characterized by a series of small, dispersed agricultural communities including Saint Anthony and Clemons, linked by a rigid network of numbered and family-named roads like Binford Ave and Canfield Ave.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial records across the township, from the centrally located Hillside Cemetery and Saint Josephs Cemetery to the more outlying Clemons Cemetery and Sacred Hearts Cemetery. The terrain is defined by the drainage patterns of several winding waterways, notably Linn Creek and North Timber Creek, which cut through the square sections of the Iowa prairie before reaching the North Skunk River in the south.
