2017 Map of Lamar South

About this map

Lamar and Lamar Heights anchor the northern landscape of Barton County, where the transition from residential grid to rural agricultural land is clearly defined. The terrain is marked by the winding paths of the North Fork Spring River and its tributaries, including the W Fork River and West Fork River. Historically significant sites for genealogists include several well-placed burial grounds such as Oak Grove Cem, Killey Cem, and Saint Marys Cem. Smaller settlements like Oakton and Boston appear as modest rural centers amidst a network of section roads. The map captures the infrastructure of the early 21st century, featuring both the Lamar Municipal Airport and Twin Oaks Airport, alongside water features like Lawless Lake and Lamar City Lake, which serve as local landmarks in this Southwestern Missouri prairie region.
