1947 Map of Crosstown

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Mississippi River defines the northeastern boundary of this survey, with Wilkinson Island situated near the confluence of the river's main channel and the winding Omete Creek. This rural landscape in Perry County is characterized by a dense network of local landmarks that suggest a tightly knit agrarian society in the late 1940s. A high concentration of one-room schools, including Hager Sch, Swan Sch, and Trickey Sch, are scattered among the ridges and valleys between the settlements of Crosstown, Farrar, and Brazeau. To the north, the San Francisco railroad line skirts the riverbank, connecting this upland farming region to wider trade routes. Significant local markers like the Pleasant Grove Ch and Fiehler Sch provide precise locations for genealogists and local historians tracing family roots in the townships of Salem and Union.
