1954 Map of Kampville
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
The Mississippi River and the Missouri River converge just east of this landscape, creating a complex network of islands and bottomlands protected by an extensive Levee system. This mid-century survey illustrates the rural character of St. Charles County before modern suburban expansion, centered on agricultural settlements like Kampville and the railroad junction at St Peters. The infrastructure of the era is clearly defined by the Chicago Burlington and Quincy and Wabash rail lines, alongside the Golden Eagle Ferry connecting to Portage Des Sioux. Local landmarks such as the St Charles Airport and Pumping Station signify the region's mid-century utility, while the presence of Friedens Ch and Methodist Cem provides essential reference points for genealogists researching family ties in the historic St Charles vicinity.
