About this map

Blackwater River and its numerous tributaries, including Finney Creek, Buck Branch, and Dry Creek, define the northern landscape of this Saline County region. This modern survey illustrates the intersection of rural agriculture and major transportation corridors, centered on the strategic node at Marshall Junction. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of waterways like Heaths Creek and Long Grove Branch, which drain the open fields.

For those researching family history, several prominent burial grounds are documented, such as Bethlehem Cemetery, Witcher Cemetery, and Cunningham Cemetery. The settlement of Longwood sits in the southern portion of the map, served by a grid of county roads including Major Rd and Walk Rd. The map provides a contemporary view of the land use patterns and rural infrastructure that have shaped this Missouri community into the 21st century.
