2015 Map of Cape Girardeau NE

About this map

Cape Girardeau sits at the southern edge of this landscape, where the urban grid gives way to the ridges and creek valleys of northern Cape Girardeau County. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent rises including Grassy Knob, Tricky Hill, and Coker Knob, which overlook the winding paths of Indian Cr and Little Indian Cr. The map captures a mix of established rural settlements like Leemon and Oriole alongside newer developments like the N Hills Estate Subdivision Lake. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the numerous family and community burial grounds documented here, including the Vangilder Cemetery, Darby Cemetery, and Thompson Cemetery. The area’s aviation history is represented by the Mooseberry Airport, while the local hydrology is shaped by bodies of water such as Bella Vista Lake and Lipps Lake.
