As of the 2000 census, its population was 828. HistoryThe first settlers intended to name their new township Fair Haven Township, because many of them were natives of Fair Haven, Connecticut. It was then decided upon organization of this township to name it from the Elk River (Iowa), where many elk horns were found at the time of settlement.[1] GeographyElk River Township covers an area of {{convert|51.87|sqmi|km2}} and contains one incorporated settlement, Andover. According to the USGS, it contains five cemeteries: Andover, Hauntown, Smith, Teeds Grove and Wilson.
