1931 Map of Cairo
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
The confluence of the Ohio River and Mississippi River dominates this early 20th-century landscape, centered on the strategic river port of Cairo. The map illustrates a dense network of steam-era transportation, featuring the Illinois Central, Mobile and Ohio, and the Cleveland Cincinnati Chicago and St Louis railroads converging near the river's tip. Beyond the urban centers of Mound City and Mounds, the terrain transitions into the backwater sloughs and lakes of the Cache River basin.
