About this map

Garden City serves as the primary hub of this Cass County landscape, where the local transportation network transitions from the diagonal path of Old Highway 7 to a rigid grid of rural routes like S Little Rd and E 315th St. The area is defined by a series of north-south running waterways, including Panther Cr, Sugar Cr, and Lick Branch, which carve through the agricultural terrain.

Genealogists will find significant historical value in the numerous family-named landmarks and burial grounds distributed across the townships, such as Clearfork Cemetery in the north and Byler Cemetery to the south. The proximity of Garden City Lake and Schrock Lake to the main settlement highlights the importance of managed water resources for this community. This survey provides a clear view of the rural homestead patterns and infrastructure that sustain this Missouri farming region.
