About this map

Saline Creek and Romaine Creek carve through the residential development of northern Jefferson County, converging toward the Meramec River near Paulina Hills. This 2012 landscape is characterized by its transition from suburban neighborhoods like Murphy and Arnold into more dispersed settlements such as Seckman and Spring Forest. Several water management sites are visible, including the Fon-Du-Lac Reservoir and Number 216 Reservoir, reflecting the infrastructure needed to support growing communities south of the metropolitan center.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by established burial grounds, notably McCormack Cemetery and Richardson Cemetery. The presence of Oak Ridge Farm and Frisco Hill suggests the area's agricultural past, even as modern roads like Old State Route 21 and Old Lemay Ferry Rd serve as the primary conduits for local travel. The southern portion of the map around Prairie Hollow retains a more open character, with smaller water bodies like Four Ridge Lake dotting the terrain.
