About this map

The Middle River and its numerous tributaries, including Smith Cr and Hillers Cr, define the drainage patterns of this central Missouri landscape. Small agricultural communities such as Guthrie, Boydsville, and Carrington are connected by a network of county roads like State Hwy H and Old US Hwy 54. This area of Callaway County is characterized by woodlots interspersed with open fields, much of it protected as part of the Mark Twain National Forest.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant data in the numerous burial grounds scattered throughout the township, such as Millers Creek Cem, Wright Cem, and Paris Fork Cem. Industrial activity is noted at the Carrington Pits, while modern transportation is represented by the Elton Hensley Memorial Airport in the northeast corner of the survey. The terrain is marked by prominent features such as Robin Ridge, which overlooks the winding Fitzhugh Br.
