2017 Map of Wheatland

About this map

Wheatland serves as the primary hub in this portion of Hickory County, centered at the crossroads of several local arteries including Main St and W Sunshine St. The surrounding landscape is defined by the winding course of the Little Pomme de Terre River and the northern reaches of Pomme de Terre Lake in the southeast. Numerous small family and community burial grounds, such as Gentry Cem, Sumner Cem, and Poe Cem, are scattered across the township grid, offering valuable markers for genealogical research. The small settlement of Butcher lies to the west, near Fairview Butcher Cem. The topography is a mix of agricultural uplands and carved drainages like Montgomery Hollow and Cedar Hollow, reflecting a rural Missouri landscape where life is closely tied to the creek systems of Hogles Cr and Little Weaubleau Cr.
