Confirmed township names include Ayr, Blaine, Denver, and Verona — the last two have no incorporated place or listed unincorporated community within their borders, so no dedicated entry appears for them above. The remaining twelve townships are almost entirely agricultural, with no standing settlement of their own.<\/p>\n \n |
