1938 Map of Fletcher

About this map

The winding course of the Big River dominates this pre-war survey of Jefferson and Washington Counties. The landscape is defined by the river’s deep meanders and several crossings, including the Pine Ford Bridge and Browns Ford Bridge. Small settlements like Fletcher and Frumet are nestled within the ridges and hollows, such as Cedar Hollow and Grassy Hollow. The map provides a clear picture of rural Missouri life in the late 1930s, documenting local landmarks like the Tar Blue Spring.
