About this map

Jonesburg and High Hill anchor this section of the Montgomery-Warren county line, where the modern transport corridor follows the historical path of the Booneslick Rd. The BNSF Railway parallels this main artery, connecting the settlements through a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainages and named ridges. To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly complex around Massas Creek and its many tributaries, such as Wilsons Br and Cullen Br.

Local history is preserved in small family and community burial grounds, including Wright Cem and Ray Cem. The southern portion of the map reveals specialized locations like Camp Sandy Hollow and Little Camp Sandy Hollow, while the north features the Adventures Aloft Airport. Numerous named hollows, such as Hog Pen Hollow and Wolf Den Hollow, suggest a long history of local land use and geographic orientation in the rural Missouri countryside.
