2017 Map of Marshall North

About this map

Marshall anchors the southern edge of this Saline County landscape, where the urban grid gives way to the agricultural expanses of the northern Missouri plains. The northern sections are defined by small crossroads settlements like Fairville and Norton, connected by a network of rural routes such as State Hwy 122 and the historic path of the Santa Fe Trl. This area is heavily dissected by the winding drainage of the Salt Fork, which feeds into localized water bodies including Bryan Lake and the Marshall Habilitation Center Lake. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the location of the Odell Cem and named landmarks like Montague Hill. The map illustrates a contemporary pattern of land use, balancing the growth of the county seat with preserved rural tracks and the natural flow of the Cow Cr and its many branches.
