Meek's Mill/Bonaparte Retreat
Van Buren Co. Iowa

In 1837, William Meek and his sons built a brush-wing dam. While this enabled the powering of a grist mill, it was not sufficient for Meeks plans. Meek then got the go-ahead from the 1939 Iowa Territorial Legislature to build a dam completely across the Des Moines River, thereby making the river non-navigatable, even though locks were built into the dam.
