2017 Map of Readsville

About this map

The border between Callaway and Montgomery counties splits this Missouri landscape, where the settlements of Readsville and Yucatan serve as quiet centers of a long-established rural community. The area is defined by its numerous small burial grounds that dot the rolling terrain, including Antioch Cem, Whitehead Cem, and the Saint Patricks Cem, providing significant points of interest for genealogical research. Waterways like the Prairie Fork and Tavern Cr carve through the countryside, while the man-made Saint Joseph Lake marks the northeastern corner of the map. This 2017 survey details a landscape of managed timber and agricultural fields accessed via an intricate network of secondary roads, including State Hwy YY and State Rd D, illustrating the persistent rural character of this region in the 21st century.
