2017 Map of Taberville

About this map

Taberville and the southern reaches of the Osage River anchor this Saint Clair County landscape, where the river winds past the wide marshlands of Baldwin Lakes and Whitley Bend. The terrain is characterized by a high density of rural burial sites, including Ridgeway Cem, Lewellen Cem, and Schoonover Cem, reflecting a long-standing pattern of family and community settlement across the uplands. Small centers like Johnson City and Iuka Springs are connected by a network of county roads such as State HWY B and State HWY BB. The land is defined by prominent rises like Golden Ridge and Grass Hill, which separate numerous drainages including Monegaw Creek and Ditty Cr. This contemporary survey provides a clear view of how these remote Missouri settlements remain centered on the river system and local agriculture.
