2015 Map of Hartville

About this map

Hartville serves as a focal point in the southeastern corner of this landscape, situated near where the Woods Fork Gasconade River winds through the Missouri terrain. The settlement pattern is defined by small, dispersed communities including Loring, Odin, and Durbin, which are connected by a network of rural roads such as Old Niangua Rd and Little Creek Rd. The geography is heavily influenced by numerous drainage systems, with Steins Cr, Parks Cr, and Little Cr carving through the township and range divisions. Local heritage is preserved at sites like Little Creek Cemetery and Krause Cemetery, providing specific points of interest for genealogical research. The map illustrates a predominantly rural environment where the economy is likely tied to the land and the waterways that define the Wright County interior.
