1958 Map of Bonne Terre

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Bonne Terre and the surrounding Old Lead Belt of Missouri appear here at a peak of industrial complexity, where the Missouri Pacific railroad winds through a landscape defined by mining operations. The density of industrial infrastructure is evident in settlements like Leadwood, Rivermines, and Desloge, which are surrounded by extensive tailings ponds and mine dumps. This 1950s record provides exceptional detail for genealogists, showing dozens of family-named cemeteries and rural institutions such as Germania Sch and Hickory Grove Ch that served these labor-intensive communities.
