About this map

Strawberry Point serves as the primary hub in this corner of Northeast Iowa, situated where several county lines converge. The town's religious and civic history is anchored by Saint Mary Cem and the Strawberry Point Methodist Cem, while the surrounding rural landscape is dotted with smaller historical landmarks. To the north, the community of Saint Sebald and its associated Saint Sebald Lutheran Cem mark an early settlement pattern distinct from the main town center.

The topography is defined by the winding Maquoketa River and numerous water sources including Richmond Spring, Baron Spring, and South Spring. These springs and creeks, such as Hewett Cr and Kleinlein Cr, have carved a diverse landscape featuring Sugar Camp Hollow. Genealogists will find particular value in the scattered burial grounds like Reed Cem and County Corners Cem, which preserve the names of the families who established farms across the Fayette, Clayton, Buchanan, and Delaware county borders.
