About this map

The East Fork Little Chariton River carves a path through this northern Missouri landscape, where rural life is defined by a network of gravel roads and small farming communities. Small settlements like Millard, Dart, and Cardy are positioned along the rail and road corridors that connect the region, while the northern edge of La Plata appears in the southeast. The terrain transitions from the elevations of Wyaconda Hills to the drainage basins of Richland Creek and Long Branch.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the placement of ancestral burial grounds, including Stukey Cemetery, Shaver Cemetery, Shoemaker Cemetery, and Bragg Cemetery. The area’s modern utility is represented by the Kirksville Municipal Airport and the Clarence Cannon Memorial Airport, which occupy the central plains between the river forks. This survey provides a clear view of the land division and water features, from Sugar Creek to the Swingle Lake Dam, as they existed in the early 21st century.
