2021 Map of Sprott

About this map

Sprott and Millers serve as the primary landmarks in this rural landscape where Ste. Genevieve and St. Francois counties meet. The area is defined by a dense network of family-named cemeteries, such as Murphy Cem, Mc Gee Cem, and the Horton Mackley Cem, providing a significant map for genealogical research. The terrain begins to rise toward the Saint Francois Mountains in the southwest, with drainage primarily moving through the N Fork Jonca Cr and S Fork Jonca Cr. Water features like Tragden Lake, Pineview Lake, and Hart Lake suggest a history of local land management and recreation. The presence of the Pickle Springs Double Arch indicates a geologically diverse environment characterized by sandstone outcroppings and narrow hollows.
