2015 Map of Leasburg

About this map

Leasburg serves as the central hub of this Missouri landscape, situated near the historic path of Old 66. The settlement pattern reflects a mix of small communities and rural family landmarks, with Coffeyton to the northeast and Hofflins to the west. The terrain is defined by its water sources, from the Little Bourbeuse River in the north to the winding Meramec River that cuts through the southern reaches near the Mark Twain National Forest. Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, including Lea Cemetery, McNickle Cemetery, and Haack Cemetery. Natural springs like Saranac Spring and McKee Spring highlight the karst topography typical of this region, while man-made features like Boo Boo Lake and Matthews Lake show the modern modification of the drainage basins.
