2015 Map of Seymour

About this map

Seymour and Diggins anchor this high-elevation Ozark landscape, where the headwaters of the James River and Little Finley Cr divide the terrain. This 2015 survey reveals a dense concentration of lineage-rich sites, reflecting the long-standing agricultural and family traditions of Webster County. Scattered burial grounds such as Childress Cemetery, Gentry Cemetery, and George Cemetery are tucked away along rural routes like Teagues Rd and Gentry Rd. Of particular interest to local historians is the Civil War Cemetery located south of the main corridor, along with the Masonic Cemetery in the eastern part of the quadrangle. The settlement pattern follows the established lines of the highway and older rural networks like Amish Loop, showing a persistent mix of small-town centers and dispersed family homesteads near landmarks like Finley Falls.
