About this map

East Lynne and Gunn City anchor this Cass County landscape, where a dense network of sectional roads connects the small agricultural communities. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Big Creek and its many tributaries, including Willow Branch and Camp Branch, which carve through the prairie. Family history and local heritage are marked by several small burial grounds, such as Staley Mound Cemetery and Gunn City Cemetery, reflecting the long-standing settlement of the area.

Distinctive topographic features like Staley Mound and Schindorff Hill rise above the surrounding fields, while the presence of Roth Farms Airport and the rail-aligned settlements of Wingate and Hadsell illustrate the evolving transportation needs of this rural Missouri corridor. The map documents the persistent agricultural patterns and drainage networks that have shaped the county’s development through the early 21st century.
