2021 Map of Amoret

About this map

The Missouri-Kansas state line defines the western edge of this landscape, where the small agricultural hubs of Amsterdam and Amoret anchor the local community. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations such as Walley Mound, Summers Mound, Graves Mound, and Spy Mound, which rise above the drainages of Miami Cr and Mulberry Cr. Local history is deeply embedded in the land through a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, including State Line Cem, Jackson Cem, and Scott Cem. Industrial history remains visible in the western portion of the map, specifically through the RR RD - Old Coal Mine Haul Rd, which serves as a concrete reminder of the region's extraction heritage near the border. This 2021 update preserves the locations of rural settlements like Mulberry, illustrating the enduring spatial layout of Bates County farmsteads and rural crossroads.
