2012 Map of Slabtown Spring

About this map

Hazleton and Slabtown sit along the winding course of the Big Piney River, highlighting the water-dependent settlement patterns of this Missouri landscape. The river creates distinctive features like Pocket Eddy and is fed by significant sources such as Slabtown Spring and Prewett Spring. This 2012 survey illustrates the network of hollows that define the terrain, including Wolf Hollow, Anderson Hollow, and Coffey Hollow. Local history is anchored by the Omalley Cemetery and Merrill Cemetery, while small water bodies like Slabtown Lake and Roby Lake indicate localized damming for recreation or resource management. The map also traces a complex system of forestry and farm roads, including Slabtown Rd and Dogtown Dr, which connect the small clusters of Edanville and Ladd through the Missouri woods.
