The Stone County Courthouse stands as a central landmark in Galena, Missouri, where the James River carves a deep loop around McCord Bend. This modern topographic survey highlights a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes, from the prominent Butler Bluffs to the numerous deeply recessed hollows such as Coon Hollow, Pratt Hollow, and Brushy Hollow. The geography of the region is shaped by the confluence of major waterways, including Crane Creek and Wilson Run, which eventually feed into the northern reaches of Table Rock Lake. For genealogists, the map identifies several local burial grounds including Parsons Cem, Bass Cem, and Galena Cem. To the southeast, the terrain transitions toward Reeds Spring, illustrating the winding road networks and residential developments like Rivermeade Loop and Regal Heights Ln that follow the natural contours of the Ozark plateau.
