About this map

Dederick and Oak Ridge stand as the primary settlements in this western Missouri landscape, situated along the northern reach of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by the branching drainage of Clear Creek and its many tributaries, including W Fork Clear Cr and Camp Br. These watercourses carve through the landscape, creating distinct landforms such as Rocky Hollow. Small reservoirs like C H Jones Lake and Marvin Vickers Lake are scattered across the rural sections, supporting the agricultural character of the region.

Genealogists and local historians will find several family and community burial grounds, including Sandstone Cem in the south and Butler Cem and Stepp Cem to the north. The road network, comprising routes like E Old Twn Rd and Mission Rd, reflects a long-established grid of rural sections, while the presence of Robinson Cem on the eastern edge provides further points of interest for those tracing the lineage of Vernon County residents.
