1961 Map of Charity

About this map

The Niangua River snakes through the northeast corner of this central Missouri landscape, where the rural communities of Spring Grove, Charity, and March anchor a network of country roads. Surveyed at the start of the 1960s, the map reveals a deeply established social fabric of small congregations and local schools, including McGee Chapel, Macedonia Ch, and the Charity Sch. Family-named cemeteries like Fraker Cem and Davidson Cem are scattered throughout the townships of South Benton and Jackson, providing valuable data for genealogists tracing Ozark roots. The terrain is defined by a dense drainage network of creek branches, such as Greasy Creek and Hog Eye Branch, which historically dictated the placement of early homesteads and the small industrial footprint of a local Quarry.
