2011 Map of Lowry City

About this map

Lowry City and Brownington serve as the primary population centers in this St. Clair County landscape, defined by the expansive reaches of the Harry S Truman Reservoir. The reservoir’s presence dominates the northern and eastern portions of the map, flooding the historic drainage basins of Big Muddy Creek and Little Muddy Creek. This 2011 survey captures the modern road network, including Co Hwy NE 1100 and Co Hwy NE 800, which connect smaller communities like Chloe and Mount Zion. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the detailed plotting of area burial grounds, such as Maplewood Cemetery, Brownington Cemetery, Mount Zion Cemetery, and Lowry City Cemetery. The terrain is further characterized by the meandering courses of Big Otter Creek and Gallinipper Creek, alongside landmarks like Turkey Hollow and Ackley Lake, illustrating the intersection of natural waterways and managed water resources in western Missouri.
