Scotch Grove, Iowa

Scotch Grove is an unincorporated community in Jones County, Iowa, United States.

Scotch Grove is located on Iowa Highway 38, southeast of Monticello and north of Center Junction.

Most of these settlers were from the Red River Settlement, which was located in modern-day Winnipeg, Manitoba.

The town of Scotch Grove was laid out in 1872 by James and Charles Applegate,[3] on whose property the Davenport & St. Paul Railroad depot had been built the same year.

The community developed as an agriculture-related business center in the heyday of Iowa's agricultural golden age between the 1890s and the 1920s.
