2017 Map of New Cambria East

About this map

Callao and New Cambria anchor the southern reaches of this landscape where the Chariton River valley divides the agricultural uplands. The drainage network of White Oak Cr, Stinking Cr, and Elam Cr creates a dissected terrain, influencing the placement of early settlements and rural cemeteries that serve as vital markers for local genealogy. Several established burying grounds, including Old Chariton Cem, Locust Grove Cem, and Howard Cem, are situated on higher ground overlooking the river bottoms. Small crossroads and rail-aligned communities like Kern and Cash appear alongside a grid of rural routes such as State Hwy HH and State Hwy UU. The presence of New Cambria Lake provides a distinct focal point near the western edge of the quadrangle, illustrating the importance of water management and local landmarks in this part of Missouri.
