About this map

The Big River winds through the heart of Washington County, anchoring a landscape defined by the foothills of the Saint Francois Mountains. This 2017 study illustrates the rural character of the eastern Missouri Ozarks, centered on the historic settlements of Belgrade and Caledonia. The topography is marked by significant rises such as Kitchell Hill and Aker Hill, while the drainage network includes the Middle Fork Fourche a Renault and Furnace Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense collection of family and community burial sites, including the Belgrade Methodist Cemetery, Janie Bryan Cemetery, and Bellvue Cemetery. The map also preserves the location of Hunters Mill Bridge crossing the river, alongside landmarks like the Mark Twain National Forest. The road network, from Old Route C to Lovers Lane, reflects a long-established rural infrastructure serving these small agricultural and river communities.
