About this map

The Chariton River carves a winding path through the center of this landscape, marking the border between Macon and Chariton counties. This 2014 survey documents a quiet rural area where small settlements like Lagonda and Barryville anchor the local road network. To the south, the northern reaches of the Thomas Hill Reservoir extend into the terrain near Kaseyville, contrasting with the numerous smaller water bodies such as Swan Lake, Mulnix Lake, and Number 2 Lake that dot the countryside.

Local history is preserved through scattered burial sites, including the Dodson Cemetery in the north and the Rice Cemetery further south. The topography is defined by the drainage of several creeks into the Chariton, most notably Stinking Cr and Puzzle Cr, which cut through the hills and bottoms. A few named locales like Hammack and Sleepy Hollow remain as distinct landmarks within this predominantly agricultural and hydraulic landscape.
