About this map

Mansfield occupies the northern portion of this Wright and Douglas County landscape, serving as a hub where Mo-B and Mo-F meet near the Burlington Northern rail line. The terrain transitions from the developed streets of the town into a series of deeply etched drainage basins and ridges to the south. Numerous family-named cemeteries are scattered across these hills, including the Deaker Cemetery, Wallace Cemetery, and Keith Cemetery, providing valuable points of reference for local historians.

The southern half of the map is defined by the winding course of Bryant Cr and its many tributaries, which have carved numerous hollows such as Smelter Hollow, Buzzard Hollow, and Rockhouse Hollow. Small rural settlements like Midway, Bryant, and Olathia are connected by a network of county roads that follow the high ground, including Shinpaugh Ridge. This 2015 data reflects the enduring rural character of the Missouri Ozarks, where contemporary infrastructure still follows the natural contours of the land established by early settlers.
