About this map

Brinktown sits at the southern edge of this central Missouri landscape, where local life follows the winding paths of the Little Maries River and the larger Maries River. The topography is defined by a dense network of creek drainages, including Rodgers Cr, Mag Cr, and Krone Br, which carve through the terrain and dictate the placement of rural roads like Mo-N and Rodgers Creek RD. This map documents a quiet rural pocket where small-scale water features like Peter Markuly Lake, Number 68 Lake, and Charwood Lake serve as local landmarks.

Family and local history researchers will find the Guardian Angel Cemetery located near the town of Brinktown, providing a focal point for genealogical study in Maries County. The map also records the small communities of Ozark Junction and Venus, illustrating the dispersed settlement patterns that persist along the county routes and secondary highways like Mo-T and Mo-JJ during this mid-2010s survey.
