2021 Map of Elmira

About this map

Mirabile and Elmira anchor this agricultural landscape at the intersection of Clinton, Caldwell, and Ray counties. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Crooked River and its many tributaries, including the S Prong Crooked River and Brushy Cr. For genealogists, the map is a significant resource, precisely locating several family and community burial grounds such as Sloan Cem, Cates Cem, and Allen Cem. The presence of Garden City Lake and Timber Lake alongside established township roads like Tri-County Line Rd illustrates a rural Missouri environment where water management and local transit have shaped settlement patterns over generations. The surveyor's detail captures a quiet regional hub, showing the transition from the small village of Barnesville in the southwest to the upland reaches near Tub Cr in the northeast.
