2021 Map of Frankford

About this map

Frankford sits at the northern edge of this Pike County landscape, where the local street grid of Main St and Water St transitions into a network of rural roads and rolling drainage basins. The area is defined by the winding course of Peno Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Peno Cr and Clifty Fork. A notable geological landmark, the DuChien Cave Natural Bridge, is located in the central portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the karst topography of this region. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies several well-distributed burial sites such as Fairview Cem near the town center and more remote locations like Mount Pisgah Cem and McCunes Cem, which often represent the only remaining physical markers of early family landholdings in the Missouri countryside.
