About this map

Coffman and Avon anchor this portion of Ste. Genevieve County, where the topography of the Mark Twain National Forest is defined by a dense network of creeks and hollows. The landscape is marked by unique geologic features like Chimney Rock and Wild Hog Bluff, while the drainages of the River aux Vases and Little Saline Cr carve through the terrain.

Genealogical interest is high throughout this area, with several rural burial grounds including Stone Church Cemetery, Jackson Cemetery, and Mayberry Cemetery situated near old crossroads and farmsteads. The settlement pattern follows the contours of the land, with Clearwater located in the southeastern quadrant near Saline Creek. This survey provides a clear view of the rural road network, from Mo-F to winding tracks like Madden Creek Rd, connecting isolated homesites and hollows such as Opossum Hollow and Big Spring Hollow.
