About this map

The Missouri River carves a winding path through the central Missouri landscape, defining the boundary between Moniteau and Boone counties. Along its banks, the river's historical shifts are visible in a series of dramatic curves including McBaine Bend, Lupus Bend, Plow Boy Bend, and Providence Bend. This area shows a transition from the river bottomlands to the dissected uplands, where features like the Roche Percée Natural Arch and Perche Creek punctuate the terrain.

Smaller settlements and family landmarks are scattered throughout the quadrangle, reflecting the region's agricultural and transit history. The Katy Trl follows the old rail corridor on the eastern bank, passing through Providence and Easley. Genealogists may find value in the documented burial sites, such as Pettigrew Cemetery, Hickam Cemetery, Bethel Cemetery, and Cofer Cemetery, located near rural routes like Possum Trot Rd and Bethel School Rd. The town of Jamestown serves as a hub in the southwestern portion of the map, connected by a network of local roads including Factory Creek Rd.
