2021 Map of Richwoods

About this map

Richwoods serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated near the headwaters of Papoose Cr and the waters of Pierce Lake. The terrain is defined by the northern reaches of the Saint Francois Mountains, where several small settlements like Maupin, Berry Hill, and Sandy Hill are connected by a network of winding roads including State HWY FF. Numerous local family and community landmarks are scattered throughout the hills, including Saint Stephens Cem, Sparks Cem, and Horine Cem. The geography is characterized by several hollows such as Grassy Hollow and Hays Hollow, alongside significant water features like Londell Lakes and Lake Tranquil. These features reflect a rural Missouri community defined by its topography and ancestral sites, with clear demarcations between Franklin, Jefferson, and Washington counties.
