About this map

The James River meanders through the southern half of this landscape, creating a natural corridor for the St Louis San Francisco railroad and the early settlement at Galloway. During the late 1930s, this area on the outskirts of Springfield balanced civic infrastructure with rural community life, anchored by Sequiota State Park and the Springfield Municipal Park and Airport. The terrain is dotted with an unusually high density of local institutions, including the Mt Risgah Sch and the Oakland Sch, alongside numerous family-named burial grounds like Parsley Cem and Mc Graw Cem. To the north, industrial markers like the Oil Pumping Sta near Pearson Creek and the Mulroy Switch rail junction highlight the importance of the transport network in connecting these Greene County townships.
