1984 Map of Parnell East

About this map

The Platte River and Grand River anchor this rural landscape in the mid-1980s, flowing through a region defined by extensive Sand Areas along the riverbeds. This area represents the rolling agricultural borderlands of Northwest Missouri, where the town of Parnell serves as a local hub near the Nodaway County line. Further east, the small settlement of Oxford sits near the river bend, surrounded by the townships of Greene and Union. The northern reaches of the Worth County Community Lake State Recreation Area appear in the southern portion of the map, suggesting the region's importance for local conservation and water management. For genealogists and local historians, the map documents the rural road networks and land divisions connecting Grantham Creek and Indian Creek, along with small rural markers such as a local Cem.
