2017 Map of Leesville

About this map

The Harry S Truman Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this Missouri quadrangle, where the rolling hills of Henry County meet the rising waters of the Grand River system. The small community of Leesville sits near the headwaters of these intricate inlets, serving as a focal point alongside other local settlements such as Hortense, Coal, and the uniquely named Tightwad. The area's rural character is defined by a dense network of country roads, including SE 200th Rd and NE Hwy PP, which connect scattered homesteads and historic sites. Genealogists will find significance in the documentation of the Tebo Church Cem and Parks Chapel Cem. Numerous waterways like White Oak Cr and Mound Springs Cr carve through the terrain, illustrating the complex drainage patterns that feed into the reservoir's expansive reach across the Henry and Benton County lines.
