2011 Map of Rocky Mount

About this map

Rocky Mount serves as the focal point of this 2011 Missouri survey, situated within the complex hydrography of the Lake of the Ozarks region. The landscape is defined by its dendritic drainage patterns, with Indian Creek, Blue Spring Creek, and South Moreau Creek carving out several named hollows like Routon Hollow and Shelton Hollow. For genealogical researchers, the map provides precise locations for family-named sites such as Taylor Cemetery, Blue Springs Cemetery, and the Riley Lamb Cemetery. The topography transitions from the high ground of Dill Ridge down to the fingers of the reservoir, illustrating the mid-20th century inundation that shaped this area. Notable landmarks include the Rocky Mount Lookout Tower and smaller bodies of water like Blue Springs Lake, offering a detailed view of the contemporary rural infrastructure and land use in Morgan and Miller counties.
