About this map

The Bourbeuse River winds through this rural landscape in the Eastern Ozarks, shaping a region defined by family-named landmarks and scattered agricultural tracts. The small settlement of Oak Hill serves as a local hub, while the surrounding countryside is densely punctuated by small burial grounds, including the Pinnell Cemetery, Aunt Pop Cemetery, and Hamilton Cemetery. These sites, along with others like the McIntire Cemetery and Miller Cemetery, offer significant points of interest for those researching the lineage of early settlers in this part of Crawford County.

Water features are prominent across the terrain, with numerous small impoundments such as Kozlowski Lake, Hickory Lake, and Stubblefield Lake providing local drainage. The network of rural roads, including W Springfield Rd and Turnbough Rd, connects these remote homesteads and points of local heritage like the Bird Sanctuary near the Schannon Cemetery. The geography reveals a community where the land and its history remain deeply intertwined through preserved family names on the landscape.
