About this map

Rothville serves as the central hub of this north-central Missouri landscape, situated just south of the border between Linn Co and Chariton Co. The town is anchored by the Rothville Cemetery and defined by a dense network of local roads such as Main St and Bushnell Ave that connect the village to the surrounding agricultural plains. The terrain is deeply carved by a dendritic drainage system, most notably Yellow Cr and its various tributaries, including W Yellow Cr, E Yellow Cr, and Slater Br.

Genealogists and local historians can find several smaller landmarks scattered across the township lines, including Stains Cemetery and Redding Cemetery. To the north, Goose Lake and the waters of Spring Br and Elk Cr dominate the drainage patterns of the upper sections. This map provides a clear view of the rural road infrastructure, from Highway JJ to more local tracks like Old School Rd and John Roth Rd, reflecting the enduring grid of the Public Land Survey System.
