1982 Map of Windyville

About this map

The Niangua River carves a winding path through this portion of Dallas County, creating a landscape defined by dramatic river bluffs such as Kehler Bluff, Hildebrand Bluff, and Bramwell Bluff. The settlement of Windyville serves as a central point, supported by community institutions like the Windyville Church and Hildebrand Church. Genealogists will find a high density of family burial sites scattered throughout the rural landscape, including the Scrivner, Hildebrand, and Phillips cemeteries, providing a clear picture of local family lineage in the early 1980s. Recreation and conservation are evident in the western reaches at Hackler Ford State Forest and along the river at the Moon Valley Access Point. The map also documents essential infrastructure such as a significant pipeline corridor crossing the southern half of the quadrangle near Cedar Ridge.
