2012 Map of Mill Grove

About this map

Mill Grove serves as the primary focal point in this portion of Grundy County, situated along a sharp bend of the Weldon River. The surrounding landscape is characterized by a high concentration of family and community burial sites, which provide significant data for genealogical research. Notable locations include Salem Cemetery to the west and the clustered Middleberry Cemetery, Wyatt Cemetery, and Trussell Cemetery to the south. The hydrography is defined by numerous north-south waterways, including Cain Branch and Muddy Creek, which feed into larger bodies such as Crowder Lake and Whitt Lake. This network of small streams and named lakes, such as Constable Lake and Akers Lake, suggests a rural economy tied closely to the drainage patterns of the Missouri plains.
