2011 Map of Filley

About this map

Cedar Springs and the surrounding rural landscape of Cedar County appear here as a network of small crossroads communities and family burial grounds. The settlement pattern is defined by clusters like Filley, Willowville, and Hackleman Corner, which are linked by a grid of agricultural roads and creeks. Waterways such as Alder Creek, Horse Creek, and Cherry Branch carve through the terrain, influencing the placement of early homesteads and landmarks like Smith Bluff. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the distribution of local cemeteries, including Vandenburg Cemetery, Mound Cemetery, and Malcolm Cemetery, which are scattered throughout the countryside. The presence of the El Dorado Springs Memorial Airport in the northwest corner highlights the modernization of transport alongside traditional land use in this Missouri interior.
