About this map

The Nodaway River carves a path through the borderlands of Missouri and Iowa, anchoring a landscape defined by small agrarian settlements and scattered family landmarks. In the south, Clearmont and Elmo serve as local hubs, while Braddyville sits further north along the river's winding course. The map documents the rural infrastructure of the early 21st century, showing the persistence of local institutions like the College Springs Post Office and the Braddyville Post Office.

Genealogists will find value in the precise locations of the Maple Hill Cemetery near College Springs and the Braddyville Cemetery. The drainage patterns of the region are exceptionally detailed, featuring the confluences of Wolf Creek, Sink Creek, and Buchanan Creek with the main river. Notable water features like Pruitt Lake and the Braddyville Access point to the area's continued reliance on the river system for recreation and drainage.
