1944 Map of Alexander

About this map

Alexander and Mabelvale serve as focal points for this 1940s landscape where Pulaski and Saline counties meet. The region is defined by a dense network of institutional sites and small rural communities, including the Salasco Sanitarium, the Womens Penitentiary, and the State Girls Industrial Home. These facilities are situated near Collegeville, positioned south of the winding Fourche Creek. The transportation corridor is anchored by the Missouri Pacific railroad, which cuts through the southern terrain near Alexander Mountain.
