2012 Map of Dissen

About this map

Kohl City and Dissen anchor this rural landscape in the Northeastern Ozarks, where the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Boeuf Creek and Big Berger Creek. The map documents a deeply established agricultural community, evidenced by several family-named landmarks and resting places such as Dahl Cemetery, Kohlbush Cemetery, and Meyers Cemetery. These features, along with names like Kohl City Rd and Grant School Rd, provide significant genealogical value for those tracing local family lineages in this corner of Franklin County. The southern portion of the sheet shows the confluence of smaller waterways like Cedar Fork and Prairie Fork, while the presence of the Landing Strip near the southeastern corner and Ben J Koch Lake indicates modern land uses interspersed with traditional farmsteads and ridges like Etlah Knobs.
