About this map

Mooresville and Utica anchor the northern landscape of this Missouri quadrangle, where the terrain transitions from the upland settlements along the US Highway 36 corridor down toward the significant riparian corridor of Shoal Creek. The map documents a predominantly agricultural region defined by its watercourses, including the winding paths of Rattlesnake Cr and Clear Cr as they move through the township sections.

Genealogists will find several burial sites for local research, including the Mooresville Cemetery, Utica Cemetery, and Monroe Cemetery located near the small community of Ludlow. To the southeast, the village of Dawn sits near the banks of Clear Cr, while Melvin Watkins Lake provides a distinct hydrological landmark in an area otherwise characterized by the branching networks of Wolf Cr and Mud Cr. The layout of the small-town street grids, such as Main ST and Depot ST in Mooresville, reflects the enduring rural structure of Livingston County.
