About this map

Wellsville serves as the central hub of this Missouri landscape, anchored by the Norfolk and Western railroad corridor. The town's infrastructure is clearly visible, including the High Sch, several Sewage Disposal Ponds, and the nearby City Lake. The surrounding township of Upper Loutre is defined by a network of waterways including Coon Creek, Little Loutre Creek, and Elkhorn Creek, which carve through the Montgomery County terrain.

Evidence of the local economy and land use is present in the numerous claypits and the Marshall I Diggs State Wildlife Management Area. Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped locations of several burial grounds, including Resurrection Cem, Peery Cem, and Sunrise Memorial Gardens. Farther south, recreation and conservation are highlighted at Wellsville Lake and its associated Boat Ramp within the Wellsville Lake State Wildlife Management Area.
