About this map

Unionville serves as the focal point of this northern Missouri landscape, anchored by the Putnam County Courthouse at the town center. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Watkins Cr, S Blackbird Cr, and Tanyard Br, which carve through the plateau between the larger waters of Lake Thunderhead and Lake McKinley. The map documents a rural environment where agricultural land is segmented by an extensive grid of secondary roads like State Hwy H and Highland Trl.

For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly valuable for its documentation of family and community burial sites. Scattered across the countryside are numerous small cemeteries, including Crumpacke Cem, Cullor Cem, Dixon Cem, and Baptist Cem. Further south, the settlement of Lemons sits near the Putnam and Sullivan county line, illustrating the historical distribution of small village hubs in the region.
