2012 Map of Edgar Springs

About this map

Edgar Springs serves as the primary hub for this portion of Phelps County, situated along the north-south axis of the local road network. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Little Piney Creek and Black Oak Creek, which have shaped the rural development of the area. This 2012 survey reveals a community deeply rooted in its local history, evidenced by a high density of family and community burial grounds including Weber Cemetery, Renaud Cemetery, and Mitchell Cemetery. In the eastern section, the small settlements of Lenox and North Lenox sit near the headwaters of Bean Creek, while further south, the Tealwood Dam holds back the waters of Lake Tealwood. The road names themselves, such as Stave Mill Rd and Black Cemetery Rd, provide insight into the historical industry and landmarks that have organized life in this Missouri countryside for generations.
