About this map

The Chariton River meanders through this portion of the Missouri-Iowa border region, defining a landscape marked by a dense concentration of family and community burial grounds. In the vicinity of Coatsville, the terrain is punctuated by significant genealogical sites such as Kerby Cemetery and Hilltown Cemetery. Further south, near the settlement of Chapel, the rural fabric includes Chapel Cemetery and the Dean Cemetery, illustrating a history of small-scale settlement across Putnam County.

Transport and water management are evident in the presence of Prairie Lake Dam and the Number 522 Dam, which control local drainage into the Prairie Recreation Lake. The region is crisscrossed by a network of local roads and trails, including Raven Town Rd and Cochran Rd, which link established points like Guinn and Coal City. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and the persistent presence of early regional names preserved in its many cemeteries.
