About this map

Farmington serves as the focal point of this St. Francois County survey, showing a significant regional hub just as the mid-century urban footprint began to expand into surrounding areas like Delassus and Hurryville. The map documents the city's civic and social infrastructure, from the Courthouse and City Hall to the expansive grounds of State Hospital No 4. This era captures the transition of the local economy, where industrial remnants like Mine No 14 and various Quarries exist alongside newer developments like the Farmington Regional Airport.

Land use patterns are clearly defined by the massive St Joe State Park to the west, contrasting with the dense network of family and community burial sites such as Masonic Cem and the Mattie Roberts Memorial Cem. Religious and educational institutions are well-represented, including the Holy Family Fathers Seminary and St Josephs High Sch, providing a detailed record for genealogists and local historians tracing the development of this Missouri community.
