2021 Map of Duncan

About this map

Duncan serves as the central focal point of this Ozark plateau landscape, where the border between Webster and Wright counties follows a surveyed line through a network of creeks and ridges. The terrain is defined by the dissection of the upland by Cantrell Creek and Hyde Creek, which eventually give way to the Woods Fork Gasconade River in the southern reaches. For those researching local family history, several small burial grounds are scattered across the quadrangle, including the Sixteenth Cemetery and Petet Cemetery, often located near prominent ridges such as Buttrom Hollow. The road network consists largely of established routes like State Highway CC and State Highway AC, which connect these rural homesteads and agricultural tracts to the larger regional trade centers.
