About this map

Macon serves as the focal point of this northern Missouri landscape, situated where the high ground transitions between significant regional watercourses. Several historic burial grounds, including Oakwood Cem, East Woodlawn Cem, and Saint Marys Cem, are clustered around the township, providing essential points of reference for genealogical research. The local infrastructure is anchored by the Macon-Fower Memorial Airport and a network of arterial roads like State Hwy T.

South of the main settlement, the smaller communities of Excello and Cox are positioned near the southern boundary. The topography is defined by the winding paths of the Middle Fork Salt River to the east and Narrows Cr through the center, while Macon Lake and the North Little Chariton River mark the northwestern reaches. This survey documents the modern rural and residential patterns of Macon County, from the street grids of its primary town to the outlying farms.
