2011 Map of Lincoln SE

About this map

Vincent Cemetery, Short Cemetery, and Bird Cemetery dot the landscape north of the Osage River, marking the legacy of rural families in this part of Benton County. This 2011 survey illustrates the complex geography created by major water management projects, where the Harry S Truman Reservoir and its associated Sterett Creek Dike meet the upper reaches of the Lake Of the Ozarks. The map reveals a transition from traditional agricultural land use, evidenced by the Lincoln Lookout Tower and various rural roads like Division, to modern recreational developments such as Sterett Creek Village Dr. Smaller watercourses including Duran Creek, Negro Creek, and Feaster Branch create a dendritic drainage pattern that defines the local topography, while the small settlement of Crawford sits near the river's edge, reflecting the enduring connection between local communities and the waterfront.
