About this map

Verona sits at the heart of this Missouri landscape, where the headwaters of the Spring River begin their westward course. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of various creeks, including Hillhouse Br and Douger Br, which carve out local depressions like Browning Hollow. This modern-era survey shows the proximity of Aurora to the east and the small community of Globe along the county line to the west.

Tracing the rural road network reveals a deep-seated connection to the land, with Spring River Cem and Calton Cem serving as vital landmarks for local family history. To the south, the terrain rises toward Pleasant Ridge and falls away into Prairie Run Hollow, illustrating the varied topography along the border of Lawrence and Barry Counties. The map details a transition from the structured street grid of Verona to the winding rural routes like State Hwy Z and Farm Rd 2010.
