2015 Map of Williamsburg

About this map

Williamsburg serves as the central hub of this Callaway County landscape, situated along the path of Old US-40 and the modern interstate corridor. The map reveals a rural economy shaped by aviation and family-held lands, featuring the Flying V Ranch Airport and the Redgate Ranch Airport near the border with Montgomery County. The drainage network is particularly dense here, with the Loutre River and its various tributaries like Bachelor Creek and Whetstone Creek cutting through the terrain. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local burial grounds, including Augusta Cemetery in the north and the Holt-Covington Cemetery to the east. The presence of numerous small reservoirs and private lakes, such as John Gasper Lake and Eugene Hooks Lake, suggests a landscape managed for both agriculture and private recreation in the early 21st century.
