About this map

New Hampton and Martinsville anchor this northern Missouri landscape, situated along the border of Gentry Co and Harrison Co. The topography is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including Big Muddy Cr, Panther Cr, and the W Fork Sampson Cr, which carve through the terrain between established county roads and state highways like State HWY Y.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-documented burial sites throughout the townships, including Grace Cem in the north and Lone Star Cem to the west. Farther east, Magee Cem and Kidwell Cem reflect the scattered nature of early rural settlement. The map illustrates a rural environment where land use is dictated by the winding paths of seasonal tributaries such as Ames Br and White Oak Cr, which intersect with the grid of section lines and gravel roads.
