2021 Map of Readsville

About this map

Readsville and the settlement of Yucatan anchor this portion of eastern Callaway County, where a network of rural roads follows the ridges between winding drainage systems. The landscape is defined by the significant branching of Prairie Fork and its tributaries, including Cow Cr and Bull Br, which carve into the terrain. Numerous small family and congregational burial grounds are scattered throughout the region, such as Gregory Cem, Whitehead Cem, and Gill Cem, providing valuable physical markers for genealogical research in this part of Missouri. The eastern edge of the map follows the Callaway and Montgomery county line. Along this boundary, researchers can find the Saint Joseph Lake area and spiritual landmarks like Antioch Christian Church Cem and Bethel United Methodist Church Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted community history of the rural townships.
