About this map

Cushman stands as a primary hub in the northeast corner of this 1940s landscape, where the Missouri Pacific railroad terminates near local mining operations. The rugged topography of Independence County is defined by the winding course of the White River, which forms the western boundary and is flanked by features like Island Slough and the Wells Ferry crossing. This era shows a distributed network of rural life, with community identity centered on small schools and churches such as Chinquapin Sch, New Hope Ch, and the Independence Sch.
