2011 Map of Patton

About this map

Patton Junction and the surrounding rural landscape in Perry County are defined by the winding network of the Upper Whitewater Creek and its many tributaries. This 2011 survey illustrates a transition from the agricultural plateaus to the north near Yount toward the more established settlement clusters at the southern edge. The map reveals the local importance of water management and milling history, centered on landmarks like Heitmans Mill and Fulton Dam. Small communities and named crossroads such as Precinct and North Patton appear connected by an intricate system of county roads, while the presence of Pleasant Hill Cemetery and private water bodies like Destitute Acres Lake and Grindstaff Lake provides critical detail for genealogists and local historians tracking family lands in this part of Missouri.
