1967 Map of Bruno

About this map

The Missouri Pacific railroad winds through the northern reaches of Marion County, following the meandering course of Crooked Creek near the settlements of Pyatt and Powell. This mid-century landscape is defined by its deep drainage patterns, with prominent watercourses like Clear Creek, Hampton Creek, and Greasy Creek carving through the terrain. The map captures a moment when traditional rural centers remained vital, documented through the presence of several family and community burial grounds including Patton Cem, Stanley Cem, Hall Cem, and Bruno Cem.
