2017 Map of Neck City

About this map

Nashville and Neck City anchor this map of the western Missouri borderlands, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Spring River. Small rural hubs like Cossville, Preston, and Tuckers Corner are scattered across a grid of section lines and county roads, reflecting the region's agricultural heritage. For genealogists, the map is particularly useful for locating several family-named burial grounds, including Shapley Cem, Bradford Cem, and Cedar Bluff Cem, many of which are tucked away near local tributaries such as Duval Cr and Slater Br. The topography reveals a transition from open prairie toward the river drainage, featuring landmarks like Shelton Lake and Barker Lake. This survey provides a precise look at the 21st-century rural infrastructure along the Barton Co and Jasper Co line.
