2015 Map of Rutledge

About this map

The North Fabius River and Middle Fabius River carve a dissected landscape across the border of Scotland and Knox Counties. Small settlements like Rutledge and Gorin anchor the northern half of the region, where the terrain transitions from flat-topped ridges to more complex drainage basins. In the south, the village of Millport sits near the Millport Bridge, marking a crossing of the Middle Fabius. Local genealogy is well-documented through scattered burial grounds, including Pauline Cemetery near Rutledge and Sand Hill Cemetery to the west. The presence of the Ella Ewing Reservoir and Shultz Lake indicates modern water management, while the dense network of county roads like Co Road 58 and Co Road 62 maintains the agricultural connectivity of this Missouri farming region.
