2014 Map of Vandalia Lake

About this map

Culiver sits at the heart of this agricultural landscape in the mid-2010s, where the rural character of northern Missouri is defined by its winding creek systems and scattered family burial grounds. The drainage of the W Fork Cuivre River and Hickory Cr shapes the terrain, leading toward larger bodies of water like Vandalia Lake. This era shows a well-established grid of county roads, such as Audrain Road 516 and Audrain Road 637, which connect local landmarks and farming communities. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local cemeteries, including New Providence Cemetery, Edwards Cemetery, and Fike Cemetery, which serve as quiet anchors for the surrounding countryside. Smaller water features like Bear Slough, Lost Cr, and Elmer Force Lake further detail the local topography, reflecting the intricate natural drainage before it crosses the southern boundary near the Audrain Co Montgomery Co line.
