1943 Map of Batesville

About this map

Batesville serves as the focal point for this mid-century survey, where the White River and the Missouri Pacific railroad drive the local economy. The city's landscape is defined by institutional landmarks such as the Masonic Home and West Batesville High Sch, alongside recreational spaces like Fitzhugh Park and the Stadium. North of the river, the terrain rises into the Shields Hills and Aydelotte Ridge, where the community's industrial activity is evident at the Miller-Rhinehart Washer, Scheid Quarry, and Gibson Mine.
