1948 Map of Cuba

About this map

Cuba serves as the primary hub of this Crawford County landscape, where the St Louis San Francisco railroad corridor and local highways converge. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Meramec River at the southern edge, while the interior is dotted with rural institutions that reveal the area's mid-century social fabric. Small educational centers like Maple Shade Sch and Fanning Sch are scattered across the map, alongside several family-named burial grounds including Fairclough Cem and Zenser Cem. This edition includes later revisions that note modern developments such as a Drive-In Theater and the Flutterbugs Roost Landing Strip, illustrating the gradual transition from a purely agricultural and rail-based economy toward the growth of localized leisure and aviation infrastructure near Cuba Municipal Airport.
