About this map

Cape Girardeau serves as the focal point of this 1920s survey, situated where the St Louis San Francisco Railroad meets the Mississippi River. The landscape reveals a transition from the riverfront bottoms at Rock Levee to the upland terrain of Byrd and Shawnee townships. Local education and community life are densely documented through an extensive network of country schools and churches, including the distinctly named Needmore School, Schoenebeck School, and Pleasant Hill Church.
