The county seat of New London serves as the central hub of this 2017 Ralls County survey, situated above the winding path of the Salt River. The landscape is defined by its rural heritage, preserved through numerous historic family and community burial grounds including Barkley Cem, New London Cem, and the more remote Mount Sterling Cem to the southeast. Of particular interest to local historians is the location of Freemore's Lick, a geographic landmark tucked north of the town near Big Cr. The area is characterized by a high density of small watercourses such as Turkey Cr, Brush Cr, and Plum Cr, which feed into the larger river systems. This modern survey provides a detailed look at contemporary property lines and road networks like Kingsville Ln and Bethel Rd, while maintaining the location of longstanding landmarks such as Bethel Ch.
