About this map

Eversonville stands as a central point in this rural landscape near the intersection of Livingston and Linn counties. The area is defined by a dense network of meandering waterways, including the winding course of Muddy Creek and its tributary, Little Muddy Creek, which cut through the agricultural terrain. Small, dispersed settlements like Shafter in the north and Hecla in the center point to a history of small-town community hubs that supported the surrounding farmsteads.

The map reveals a patchwork of township divisions including Jackson, Medicine, and Clay, illustrating the late 20th-century jurisdictional boundaries of North Central Missouri. In the far southwest corner, the edge of Wheeling appears, while the rest of the quadrangle is largely occupied by named drainages such as Coon Creek, Smokey Creek, and Parson Creek. This survey provides a clear view of the section lines and rural road grids that organized Missouri's heartland before the turn of the millennium.
