1875 Map of Boone County: Showing Communities and Townships

From the Boone County Historical Society collection; "An Illustrated Historical Atlas of Boone County, Missouri", by Edwards Brothers, 1875.  This beautiful plat book of the county is available at the Wilson-Wulff History and Genealogy Library in the Walters-Boone County Historical Museum.  It shows the location and owner of all property outside the towns.

The complete atlas, along with an every name index, has also been reprinted by the Genealogical Society of Central Missouri and is available for purchase.  For ordering information, go to: http://gscm.missouri.org/publications.html

The county map below allows the reader to determine a location within the county by section, range and township.  The image may be enlarged by left clicking on it.
