About this map

Crockerville sits near the heart of this Missouri landscape, where the boundary between Benton and Morgan counties follows the ridgelines and stream valleys of the northern Ozarks. The area is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern, with Haw Creek and Big Buffalo Creek carving deep into the terrain. For family researchers, several notable burial sites are recorded, including the Old Stover Cemetery and the Brauersville Lutheran Cemetery.

Southern reaches of the map feature Lake Placid and the depression of Pole Hollow, showing the character of the countryside before the terrain levels out further north. The road network preserves local history through names like Balke Prairie School Road, reflecting the vanished rural institutions of the early twentieth century. This 2014 survey captures the persistence of small rural settlements and agricultural holdings amidst the winding creeks of central Missouri.
