About this map

Knob Noster and the surrounding central Missouri countryside appear in this detailed 2011 topographic study, anchored by the town's grid and its proximity to the Clear Fork Blackwater River. The landscape is a network of rural routes such as Ne 500 and Ne 750, connecting scattered farmsteads with longstanding local landmarks like Carbon Hill and the elevated Cooks Knob.

Genealogists can trace a significant number of family and community burial grounds, including Saint Joseph Cemetery, Knaus Cemetery, Rothwell Cemetery, and Hocker Cemetery. Water features dominate the geography, with Walnut Creek and Little Walnut Creek winding through the terrain toward the Blackwater River. The map also captures several local bodies of water like Foffel Lake and Jaeger Lake, alongside the small settlement of Valley City and the recreation site at Camp Shawnee.
