About this map

Crosstown and its neighboring rural communities in Perry County define this landscape along the western bluffs of the Mississippi River. The settlement pattern is deeply rooted in local congregational history, evidenced by the numerous church-centered cemeteries that anchor the hillsides, such as Salem Lutheran Church Cem at Farrar and Brazeau Presbyterian Church Cem in Brazeau. These sites, along with Zion Lutheran Cem and Bethlehem Baptist Cem, reflect the religious and familial foundations of the area.

Waterways like Indian Cr, Brazeau Cr, and Omete Cr carve through the terrain, winding toward the river near Wilkinson Island. The map traces a complex network of county roads, including State Hwy P and Hwy C, which connect the small hamlets and farmsteads. Further south, the community of Frohna appears, continuing the sequence of historic crossroads settlements that have characterized this part of Missouri for generations.
