1961 Map of Bassville

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Fellows Lake dominates the central landscape of this Greene County quadrangle, a significant water feature that collects the flows of the Little Sac River. The map captures a transition from rural homesteads and family cemeteries to increasing suburban development near the southern edge. Local history is anchored by a network of community landmarks, including Peace Chapel, Elm Spring Ch, and Potter Ch, while the St Louis San Francisco railroad cuts across the southeastern corner near Strafford. The map details the topography between the Little Pomme de Terre River and Pearson Creek, illustrating the drainage patterns that defined early settlement in Franklin, Jackson, and North Campbell townships. Educational and community centers like Mt Comfort Sch and Pleasant View Sch serve as important points of interest for genealogists tracing mid-century rural Missouri life.
