1951 Map of Camden Point

About this map

Camden Point and the winding course of the Platte River define this mid-century look at rural Missouri. The landscape is deeply tied to the river's meandering path and its fork with the Little Platte River, where a complex network of small rural schools and family-named cemeteries reflects a long-established farming community. Settlements like Ridgeley and Edgerton Junction are connected by a system of rural roads and distinctive crossings, including a Covered Bridge and the Skinner Bridge.
