About this map

Higbee serves as the primary population center on this Randolph County landscape, situated where the terrain transitions toward the Bonne Femme Cr and Salt Fork drainage systems. The town’s grid is defined by its connection to local infrastructure, including proximity to the City of Higbee Reservoir and Higbee Lake. To the west, the smaller settlement of Yates sits along State Hwy B, representing the rural hamlets that characterize the region.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds across the township lines, such as Bagby Cem in the north and Whitmore Cem closer to the town center. The map documents an intricate network of watercourses, including Silver Cr, Turner Fork, and the curiously named Hungry Mother Cr, which carve through the farmland. These features, combined with numerous county roads like Co Rd 2480, illustrate the enduring rural character of this Missouri interior.
