2010 Map of Zaneta

About this map

North Fork Black Hawk Creek meanders through this portion of Black Hawk County, anchoring a landscape defined by its agricultural grid and dispersed rural settlements. The map highlights the localized community points of Fredsville in the north and Zaneta further south, alongside the smaller junction at Bois d'Arc. This 2010 survey reflects the enduring layout of township roads like Grundy Rd and Viking Rd, which have served the region's farmsteads for generations. Genealogists will find significant value in the preservation of several local burying grounds, including the Zion Lutheran Cemetery and Fairfield Township Cemetery, which remain central landmarks in this quiet corner of the Iowa prairie. The confluence of Willow Creek and the main branch of Black Hawk Creek in the south provides a natural contrast to the rigid geometry of the surrounding section lines.
