2012 Map of East Prairie

About this map

Armour Cemetery sits near the northern boundary of this Mississippi County landscape, serving as a quiet landmark within a highly structured grid of agricultural roads. The town of Dogwood and the smaller settlement of Defield anchor the central and southern portions of the map, connected by an extensive network of county routes. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern layout of East Prairie, where residential blocks meet the sprawling farm tracts typical of the Bootheel region. Local travel is defined by a dense web of numeric and named roads, such as Artic Ln, E Indian Ln, and Atlantic Ln, which delineate property lines and drainage patterns. The geographic arrangement reflects a century of land management designed to support the intensive cultivation of this alluvial plain.
