About this map

The Lake of the Ozarks shoreline shapes the northern landscape of this Missouri Ozarks territory, where the complex fingers of Duroc Bay and the Deer Creek Arm reach into the upland terrain. South of the main water body, the community of Edwards serves as a central hub, connected to outlying areas like Hastain and the uniquely named Jockey City Corners. The map reveals a land defined by its hollows—named for early families and local landmarks—such as Sawmill Hollow, Cantrell Hollow, and Mattock Hollow.

Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial sites at Hay Cemetery and Belleview Cemetery, providing clear geographic context for family research. The network of winding roads, including Mullikin Pl and Trinchera Rd, traces the ridges and valleys between water sources like Turkey Creek and Buck Branch. This era of documentation shows the developed residential fingers near Lakewood Lake contrasting with the more rural, creek-carved stretches of Little Deer Creek.
