2017 Map of Purdy

About this map

The town of Purdy serves as the central hub of this Barry County landscape, characterized by a dense network of county roads and family cemeteries that speak to generations of rural settlement. Small communities and named locales such as Corsicana, Burtonville, and East Purdy are scattered across the township lines, while the southern edge reaches the village of Butterfield. The topography is defined by the drainage of Hudson Cr and the S Fork Capps Cr, which carve through the terrain to create distinctive hollows like Todd Hollow and Calls Hollow. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds documented here, including the Henderson Cem, Goodnight Cem, and Clark Cem. The presence of the Ingram Private Airport and the grid of thoroughfares like State Hwy B illustrate the modern transportation infrastructure overlaying this traditional Ozark agricultural region.
