2022 Map of Clio

About this map

Wayne County's agricultural identity is clearly defined here through the extensive section-line road network and the drainage basins of the South Fork Chariton River and the Medicine Creek forks. The township of Allerton stands near the northeastern corner, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural sections. The landscape is dotted with small, family-associated or community burial grounds, providing significant genealogical landmarks for those tracing local heritage. These include Clio Cem, Hazel Dell Cem, Greenridge Cem, and Higley Cem. The geography is characterized by the subtle divide between north-flowing and south-flowing waters, with Little Muddy Cr and W Fork Medicine Cr cutting through the southern townships, reflecting a terrain that has long dictated the layout of local farms and transport routes like Co Rd J46.
