2015 Map of Cosby

About this map

Platte River and the One Hundred and Two River define the agricultural landscape of this Missouri region, marking the transition between Andrew and Buchanan counties. The village of Cosby sits in the north along Main St, while the community of San Antonio occupies the center, and Hurlingen lies to the east near the NE Railroad. This map is particularly valuable for genealogical research, documenting numerous burial sites across the township including High Prairie Cemetery, Brown Cemetery, Concord Cemetery, and Bethel Cemetery. The drainage patterns of Muddy Creek and the Third Fork illustrate the fertile lowlands that supported these long-standing farming communities. Local landmarks like Wales Lake and the Oak Ridge Cemetery offer specific points of reference for tracing family homesteads and local history in a landscape shaped by both small-town settlements and river tributaries.
