About this map

Jerico Springs sits at the junction of Cedar, Dade, and Barton counties, serving as a focal point for this rural landscape. The area is defined by a dense network of country roads, such as NE 10th Rd and W Dade 12, which connect small settlements like Newport and Sylvania. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain shaped by the many branches of Horse Creek and Bear Creek, including the winding Chaney Br and Patton Br.

Genealogists will find significant value in the several local burial grounds documented here, including Round Prairie Cemetery, German Cemetery, and Anna-Edna Cemetery. The map also captures local water features such as Don Henley Lake and Jordan Creek, providing a detailed look at the hydrology of this southwestern Missouri region. The distribution of these landmarks and cemeteries among the township and range lines illustrates the enduring settlement patterns of these three adjoining counties.
