2021 Map of Hemple

About this map

Hemple and Starfield sit at the center of this agricultural landscape in Clinton County, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of creek branches and rural roads. The area is divided by the Buchanan and Clinton county lines, with Stewartsville anchoring the northern boundary near the DeKalb border. Small cemeteries like New Harmony Cem and Keller Cem are tucked away near watercourses such as Malden Cr and McGuire Br, serving as quiet markers of the local community's history. The drainage pattern of Castile Cr and its various tributaries creates a complex topography of ridges and valleys that has dictated the placement of local thoroughfares like State Hwy N and NW State Hwy VV. This map captures the persistent rural character of northwest Missouri, showing how the land is still organized around historic family-named landmarks and traditional creek-fed drainage basins.
