About this map

Phillipsburg and the northern edge of Conway anchor this section of Laclede County, defined by the diagonal transit corridor that cuts through the southwestern Missouri landscape. The terrain is characterized by a network of drainage systems, including the winding Dousinbury Creek, Brush Creek, and Jones Creek, which have influenced the placement of local homesteads and small family burial grounds.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established landmarks such as Rocky Knob Cemetery, Lonesome Hill Cemetery, McFall Cemetery, and Shanks Cemetery. The map reflects a blend of rural agricultural life and modern infrastructure, where established routes like State Hwy W and numerous county roads like Doe Run Rd and Cattail Rd navigate the undulating geography. Features like Porto Farms Lake Dam and Brittain illustrate the local land use and smaller named points of interest that persist in this region.
