About this map

The Spring River winds through the heart of the Ozark plateau in this detailed survey of southwestern Missouri, centered on the historic town of Verona. This landscape is defined by its drainage systems, including the headwaters of Center Cr, Little Flat Cr, and Calton Cr. The settlement pattern reflects a mix of small community centers like Globe and the outskirts of Aurora, connected by a dense network of local routes such as Old Aurora Rd and Syntex Access Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial grounds, including Spring River Cemetery and Calton Cemetery, which sit among topographical features like Browning Hollow and Prairie Run Hollow. The map also captures the Lawrence Co Barry Co line, providing a precise look at the jurisdictional boundaries that shaped the local history of Pleasant Ridge and the surrounding rural townships.
