About this map

The Big River meanders sharply through the hilly terrain of Jefferson and Washington counties, dictating the early infrastructure and settlement patterns of this Missouri interior. In the late 1930s, the rural community of Fletcher and the nearby crossroads of Frumet served as local hubs, connected to the surrounding countryside by a network of winding roads and crossings like Pine Ford Bridge. Educational and spiritual life was deeply rooted in the landscape, evidenced by the distribution of country schools such as Browns Sch and Maness Sch, alongside family burial grounds including McCain Cem. The map reveals a reliance on natural resources and traditional farming, with Tar Blue Spring and various hollows such as Grassy Hollow defining the local geography. This survey provides a clear view of the region before significant modern development, showing the original township divisions of Central, Richwoods, and Valle.
