1934 Map of Bagnell
USGS Topo · Published 1934About this map
Bagnell Dam stands as the engineering centerpiece of this mid-1930s survey, marking a transformative moment for the Osage River and the newly formed Lake of the Ozarks. The map captures the region in transition, showing the infrastructure of the dam alongside older river-based features like the Ferry at Wilcox Bend and Brockmans Island. Local life is well-documented through a network of rural institutions, including Harmony Ch, Bennett Ch, and numerous educational sites like Post Oak Sch and Walnut Grove Sch. Genealogists will find particular value in the precise locations of the Fitzgerald Cem and Bronot Cem. The landscape is deeply dissected by named drainages such as Bear Creek and Little Gravois Creek, while emerging settlements like Lakeside and Osage Beach hint at the area's burgeoning role as a regional recreational hub.
