About this map

Woodville and Duncans Bridge anchor this 1971 survey of north-central Missouri, where the Middle Fork Salt River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Randolph, Macon, Monroe, and Shelby counties. The landscape is defined by the intricate drainage systems of Rich Land Creek and Mud Creek, which feed into the primary river valley.

Evidence of the area's rural social structure is preserved through scattered landmarks like Salem Ch, Hickory Grove Ch, and numerous family burial grounds including Phillips Cem and Hughes Cem. Local industry and recreation are represented by the site of Levick Mill and the lakeside facility at Camp Thunderbird. This documentation captures the region just before the significant topographical changes brought by late 20th-century reservoir projects, offering a precise look at the original river bends and section lines.
