Elaine, City Island is in Davenport, it is different from Island City. Island City was not on an island, but across a slough from Smith's Island. Lock and Dam 14 is now at the other end of Smith's Island. Brent >According to information kindly provided by Brent Hemphill, who researched >1882, 1894, 1905 and 1916 Scott County maps, Island City (or City Island, as >it is marked on the maps) was in LeClaire Twp, on the far southwest corner >of LeClaire.
Thanks for the correction, Brent, and all the information on lost towns!
