USGS Topo · Published 1937About this map
The Gasconade River meanders through the heart of this central Missouri landscape, shaping a series of dramatic bluffs including Edwards Bluff and Heckman Bluff. In the mid-1930s, the region was characterized by small, dispersed rural settlements and a dense network of country schools, such as Miller Grove Sch and Wiggins Sch, which served as local anchors for the agricultural community. The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad cuts across the lower half of the quadrangle, fueling the growth of Bland and Owensville as commercial hubs.
