About this map

Strasburg and Lone Jack anchor this 2011 Missouri survey, which captures the rural character of Cass County before further suburban expansion. The landscape is defined by the hydrologic network of Big Creek and the bifurcated reaches of West Branch and East Branch Crawford Creek. These waterways dictate the layout of the local road system and the placement of early settlements.

Genealogical interest is found in the Soldiers Cemetery north of the county line and Sloan Cemetery further south, providing fixed points for local family history research. Small community markers like Baldwin Park and Baldwin Lake reflect local recreation and small-town development, while the name Skaggs appears as a point of interest along the rural routes east of the main settlements. The map illustrates a transition where traditional agricultural parcels meet newer residential divisions.
