About this map

Mark Twain Lake dominates the southern half of this landscape, its intricate shoreline carving deep into the Monroe County countryside. The village of Stoutsville sits just north of the lake's reach, positioned near the junction of Monroe Rd 486 and Monroe Rd 480. This modern survey reveals a region where traditional land divisions meet the large-scale water management of the Salt River system, impacting local geography and road networks.

Genealogists can identify several burial sites that survived the reservoir's creation, including Stoutsville Cem, Saint Andrews Cem, and the more northern Jeter Cem. Small settlements like Clapper and the namesake for the flooded Leich Ford anchor the map's historical geography. Significant stream systems like Indian Creek and Buck Cr continue to define the terrain, while landmarks such as Fishtrap Bridge provide specific points of reference for local historians tracing the evolution of Monroe County's rural infrastructure.
