1942 Map of Hume
USGS Topo · Published 1942About this map
The borderlands of Missouri and Kansas at the start of the 1940s are defined by a grid of rural schoolhouses and the intersection of major rail lines. Hume serves as the primary hub, where the Kansas City Southern and Missouri Pacific railroads converge near the state line. This survey, conducted by J. B. Leachman, I. E. Nelson, and K. D. Cox, captures a landscape thoroughly organized by agricultural settlement, with a remarkable density of one-room schoolhouses such as Mt Rose Sch, Mt Leonard Sch, and Brush College Sch serving the surrounding farming families.
