2017 Map of Dearborn

About this map

Dearborn and Faucett anchor the landscape of this 2017 survey, which straddles the boundary between Buchanan Co and Platte Co. The area is defined by a dense network of country roads and family-named cemeteries, reflecting generations of rural settlement in northwest Missouri. Significant clusters of history are found at New Market and the smaller locality of Taos, while the legacy of early transportation is visible in the alignment of Rock Island Dr and NW Interurban Rd. Water features like Antioch Lake, Trickey Lake, and the Dearborn Reservoir dot the terrain alongside winding branches such as Bee Creek and Blizzard Branch. Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites, from Antioch Cemetery to Yates Cemetery and Hackett Cemetery, documenting the families who shaped these communities.
