About this map

The Gasconade River meanders through the northwest corner of this Laclede County landscape, where the rugged topography is defined by the Mark Twain National Forest. This 2004 revision reflects a region deeply rooted in small rural communities like Winnipeg and Nebo, where social life once centered on the numerous schools now marked only as historical sites. Genealogists can find significant data points at Winnipeg Cem, Chatham Cem, and the McGinnis Cem.

The map reveals a transition from active settlement to conservation and forest management, illustrated by the Turkey Walk-In Area and seasonal closures on forest roads. While churches like Mount Carney Ch and Pine Creek Ch continue to anchor the area, the multiple entries for former school locations, including Fairview Sch (Site) and Blackbird Sch (Site), provide evidence of a consolidating rural population. Water sources such as Wrinkle Spr and the Kuhn Creek drainage remain essential features of this Ozark plateau terrain.
