About this map

Guthrie and the surrounding townships of Bourbon and Round Prairie define this portion of Callaway County in the late 1960s. The landscape is marked by small settlements and a network of rural institutions, including the Carrington Sch and Middle River Sch. A legacy of industrial activity is evident through the several Strip Mine operations and a Quarry scattered across the eastern sections.

Transportation patterns reflect a transition, where an Old Railroad Grade cuts through the center of the map near Carrington, while the Fulton Municipal Airport represents modern infrastructure on the eastern edge. Local genealogy is well-preserved through numerous family and community landmarks like the White Cloud Cem, Wright Cem, and Boydsville Cem. The terrain is drained by systems such as Millers Creek and the Middle River, illustrating the agricultural character of these Missouri townships.
