About this map

Marceline serves as the central hub of this northern Missouri landscape, showing a grid of residential streets and civic landmarks including the Marceline Municipal Airport. The area is notably defined by its water management and recreation sites, with several large reservoirs such as New Marceline City Lake and Marceline Old Reservoir supporting the community. Smaller impoundments like Kussmans Lake and Doctor Charles Martin Lake are scattered across the terrain, which is drained by the Mussel Fork and Clarks Creek.

Genealogists will find several significant burial sites, from Elmwood Cemetery on the northern edge of town to the more remote Bell Cemetery near Westville. The map also illustrates the transition from the organized street plan of the town center to the rural reaches of southern Linn County, where family-named landmarks like Garys Lake and various dams indicate a landscape deeply altered for local agriculture and water storage.
