About this map

Guffey Cem stands as a focal point of local history in this rural landscape along the Caldwell and Livingston County line. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, where the meandering Shoal Creek is joined by tributaries like Turkey Cr, Panther Cr, and Flat Cr. This agricultural region is characterized by small lakes such as Owens Lake and Sieck Lake, which support the drainage patterns of the Missouri plains.

A network of local roads, including State Hwy A and State Hwy M, connects isolated farmsteads and rural properties. The prevalence of named routes like NE Catawba Rd and NE Turkey Rd reflects the persistence of long-established land divisions. Researchers will find a landscape that maintains its rural character, with the movement of water and the county boundary remaining the primary features of the physical and political geography.
