Dunham's Grove
First Settlement in Crawford County, Iowa
You can see Dunham's Grove on the Boyer River between Denison and Vail (please click on the map to see a larger version).  This is a piece of a plat map from 1875, 26 years after Cornelius Dunham settled the area.  At this point, the family had long since moved further down the river, but it does show Cornelius' first settlement.
