2011 Map of Fortuna

About this map

Aikinsville and Fortuna anchor this 2011 survey of the central Missouri countryside, where a network of rural roads connects long-established farming communities. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of numerous streams, including the eastward-flowing Straight Fork and Little Richland Creek, which carve gentle drainage patterns through the terrain. For genealogists and local historians, the map is particularly useful for locating several family and community burial grounds, such as Stone Cemetery, Allison Cemetery, and the Newkirk Cemetery near the eastern edge of the quadrangle.
