2017 Map of Burton

About this map

Burton and Sebree anchor this rural landscape in Howard County, where the terrain is defined by the intricate drainage systems of Moniteau Cr and the Salt Fork. The map reveals a dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Williams Cem, Thompson Cem, and Mount Nebo Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research in this part of Missouri. Small crossroads settlements like Bunker Hill and the uniquely named Punkin Center punctuate the grid of county roads, illustrating a settlement pattern that remained largely decentralized into the early 21st century.
