2012 Map of Gentry

About this map

The village of Gentry serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in northwestern Missouri, situated near the winding course of the Middle Fork Grand River. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including Linn Creek, Canaday Creek, and Peddler Creek, which feed into the larger river basin. Local genealogy and land ownership history are anchored by the Snider Cemetery located north of the town center. The 2012 geography shows a significant reliance on water management, evidenced by several small impoundments such as Dure Lake Dam, Foster Lake Dam, and Smith Lake Dam. These man-made features, alongside landmarks like Redmond Hill, illustrate the intersection of the natural prairie drainage and modern land use. The local road network, including named routes like Deens Timber Rd and Buck Snort, provides a clear view of the rural township structure during the early 21st century.
