2017 Map of Gordonville

About this map

Hubble Cr and its various tributaries, including Williams Cr and Foster Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Cape Girardeau County landscape. The area is characterized by a dense network of family and community burial grounds, such as the Zion United Methodist Church Cem, Eggimann Cem, and Suedekum Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research. The small settlements of Gordonville, Tilsit, and Dutchtown are connected by a web of county roads and state highways, reflecting a rural township structure that has persisted into the modern era. To the north, the southern edge of Jackson begins to exert its influence, while the ridges of Saddlebrooke Ridge and Coyote Ridge provide distinct topographic boundaries between the creek valleys.
