About this map

Blairstown serves as the central hub of this West-Central Missouri landscape, where the grid-like road system of Henry Co meets the winding path of Big Creek. The village layout is clearly defined by N Main St and 4th St, providing a detailed look at the community structure just south of the border with Johnson Co. The surrounding rural territory is marked by several small settlements including Denton to the north and Norris to the southeast, illustrating the distributed agricultural nature of the region.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous family and local burial sites scattered across the township, such as Farnsworth Cem, Priestly Cem, Quick Cem, and Carpenter Cem. The natural drainage of the land is documented through features like the Old Channel Big Cr and tributaries such as Brushy Cr and Eliza Ann Br, which have shaped the local topography and property boundaries for generations.
