About this map

Troy serves as the central hub of this Missouri landscape, with its residential growth extending south toward South Troy and Moscow Mills. The area is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, most notably the winding Cuivre River and its various tributaries like Buchanan Creek, Whitcomb Branch, and Crooked Creek. These waterways have shaped the placement of local infrastructure, including a series of small regional airfields such as the Landing Strip located near the center of the sheet.

For genealogists and local historians, the map is particularly detailed regarding burial sites. Scattered throughout the rural outskirts are numerous family and community graveyards, including the Ross, Hubbard, Frieden, and Edward Lanier Cemetery. The presence of Marie Cook Lake and Trojan Lake highlights the modern recreational and residential water management that characterizes this part of the Gateway Planning Region.
