1964 Map of Danby

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Danby sits at the heart of this mid-1960s landscape, where the rugged drainages of Isle du Bois Creek and Fourche a Du Clos carve through the borderlands of Ste. Genevieve and Jefferson counties. The settlement pattern is defined by family legacy and rural congregation, evidenced by the numerous burial grounds like Baker Cem and Hoover Cem, alongside the Lebanon Ch. The St Louis San Francisco railroad cuts a corridor through the northern hills, while smaller water features such as Skaggs Spring and Sunset Lake provided essential local resources. This survey captures a moment of transition for the region's industry, showing a small Quarry near the southeastern corner, while the complex system of hollows, including Hocum Hollow and Prentiss Hollow, reveals the area's difficult topography before modern development altered these deep-set drainage patterns.
