1932 Map of Hannibal
USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
Mississippi River bottomlands define the geography of this 1932 survey, illustrating the complex relationship between the water and the low-lying terrain of Marion and Pike counties. While the city of Hannibal sits on the western bank, the eastern floodplains in Illinois are a network of seasonal water bodies and drainage features like Bird Slough, The Sny, and Running Slough. This environment necessitated a decentralized social structure, evidenced by the numerous rural schoolhouses such as Eagle Slough Sch and Rouse Sch that served isolated farmstead communities.
