2011 Map of Monegaw Springs

About this map

Monegaw Springs sits along the northern banks of the Osage River, a historic focal point in St. Clair County defined by its natural water features and rugged local topology. The confluence of Monegaw Creek and the river creates a complex wetland environment, punctuated by named elevations like Clubhouse Hill and Youngers Lookout. This 2011 survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to its past through a high density of family and community burial grounds, including the Terry Cemetery, Parks Cemetery, and Benton Green Cemetery, which are scattered throughout the rural sections surrounding the settlement of Chalk Level. The map also details the riparian corridor where Yellow Creek and Silver Creek feed into the river system, alongside modern additions like the Wixted Airport and the recreational waters of Spring Lake.
