1984 Map of Meadville

About this map

Meadville serves as the primary hub of this north-central Missouri landscape, situated at the junction of several drainage systems and the Burlington Northern railroad. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Parson Creek, which flows south through the center of the sheet, supported by a network of tributaries including Patterson Branch, Coon Creek, and Levee Creek. This 1984 survey highlights a region shaped by agricultural divisions and rural infrastructure, where the Livingston and Linn County line marks a significant political boundary crossing the western portion of the map. Smaller watercourses like Lewis Creek and Hickory Branch further carve the topography, illustrating the intricate watershed patterns that dictate the placement of roads and farmsteads within the townships of Clay, Wheeling, and Parson Creek.
