About this map

The Spring River winds through the central corridor of Lawrence County, anchoring the town of Verona at its northern bend. This part of southwest Missouri displays a landscape defined by its waterways, with tributaries like Hillhouse Branch and Douger Branch carving into the upland terrain. The settlement pattern is dominated by a grid of numbered county roads and forest routes that connect smaller established points such as Globe and Pleasant Ridge.

Genealogists will find particular interest in the preservation of local history through sites like Spring River Cemetery and Calton Cemetery, which serve as physical markers of long-standing community roots. Terrain features such as Browning Hollow southeast of Verona provide a sense of the relief in the area, while the paths of Little Flat Creek and Kelly Creek in the south illustrate the drainage network that historically dictated farm placement and early travel routes.
