About this map

The Middle Fork Salt River and Elk Fork Salt River define the rolling landscape of Monroe County in this 2014 survey. At the eastern edge of the quadrangle, the city of Paris serves as a focal point, with its residential streets including W Locust St and N Washington St extending toward the riverbanks. The surrounding rural townships are marked by a high density of ancestral burial grounds, including Boomer Cemetery, Shiloh Cemetery, and Youngs Cemetery, which provide significant value for genealogical research in this part of Missouri.

Infrastructure is anchored by the Union Bridge crossing over the Elk Fork, while aviation interests are represented by the Lake Village Airport. Further west, the small settlement of Fowkes sits amidst a network of county roads like Monroe Road 223. The hydrological pattern is intricate, with numerous small waterways such as Pooles Br, Bee Cr, and Bakers Pond feeding into the larger river systems.
