About this map

Cherryville and the nearby settlement of Limberlost anchor this landscape of the Missouri Ozarks, where the drainage of Crooked Creek and Dry Creek carves a complex network of hollows and ridges. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, marked by numerous family and church burial grounds including Wilkinson Cemetery, Earney Cemetery, and Gregory Cemetery. These sites, alongside the Earney Mill, indicate a long history of local industry and kinship that persists into the early 21st century.

Water management is prominent across the terrain, with multiple small reservoirs like Ballard Lake Section 13 and Geize Lake providing localized resources. Distinctive topographical features such as Camels Hump and Bates Hollow define the physical character of the area, while a mesh of local routes like Rebel Ridge Rd and Blackstock Rd connect the scattered homesteads and small farmsteads characteristic of Crawford County.
