2017 Map of New Florence

About this map

Montgomery City and New Florence anchor this Montgomery County landscape, situated along a vital transportation corridor defined by the Norfolk Southern railroad and the modern interstate. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of waterways, including Elkhorn Cr, Wolf Cr, and Clear Fork, which feed into local reservoirs like Carl Dreyer Lake and Pierson Lake. Local history and genealogy researchers will find several significant landmarks, notably the New Florence Cem and Mount Pleasant Cem, alongside distinctive topographical features such as Calhoun Hollow and Mary White Hollow. Small-scale aviation is represented by Wilkins Airport, while the settlement of High Hill marks the southeastern corner of the study area. This survey illustrates the persistent importance of the rail line and state highways in shaping the development of these Missouri communities.
