2015 Map of Coldwater

About this map

Saint Francis River dominates the western landscape of this Missouri Ozarks terrain, winding past notable crossings such as Varsh Ford and Shelton Ford. The map records the rural settlements of Saco, Coldwater, and Lodi, which are interspersed among the elevations of the Saint Francois Mountains. Numerous small family and community burial grounds, including Whitener Cemetery, Paullus Cemetery, and Linville-Barrett Cemetery, provide significant data for genealogical research within Madison and Wayne Counties. The drainage patterns are intricate, defined by Trace Cr, Twelvemile Cr, and Cedar Cr which feed into the larger river system. Significant peaks and ridges like Bald Knob, Victoria Mtn, and Mt Glory rise above dozens of named hollows, illustrating the dissected topography that has historically shaped local transport and settlement patterns.
