About this map

The Missouri River carves a winding path through this portion of Carroll County, defining the landscape with significant meanders such as Prunty Bend, Teteseau Bend, and Thomas Bend. This 2012 survey illustrates a predominantly agricultural region where water management is critical, evidenced by the presence of Van Meter Ditch, Van Meter Dam, and the expansive Teteseau Lake south of the river.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the rural uplands, including Salem Cemetery, Adkins Cemetery, Cannon Cemetery, and Elder Cemetery. Small clusters of settlement at Leta and White Rock are connected by a grid of county roads that navigate the tributaries of Wakenda Creek, including Peavine Branch and Lick Branch. The map provides a detailed view of the floodplain and the intricate drainage network essential to this riverine environment.
