About this map

Shoal Creek meanders through this Newton County landscape, connecting the regional centers of Diamond, Granby, and the northern edge of Neosho. The 2012 geography is defined by a dense network of country roads and family-named landmarks that offer a significant resource for local genealogists. Numerous burial sites are documented across the terrain, including Carver Cemetery, Gibson Cemetery, and Greenwood Cemetery, alongside the sprawling Granby Memorial Cemetery.

Agricultural and natural preservation are evident in features like the Diamond Grove Prairie and the riparian corridors of Dry Branch and Baynham Branch. Aviation history is represented by Shepherd Airport west of Diamond. The map provides a detailed view of late-twentieth-century rural development and town boundaries, such as those marked by City Limit Rd, during a period of sustained settlement in southwest Missouri.
