1954 Map of Kampville

About this map

St Charles is the focal point of this mid-century survey, showing the expansion of the city during the late 1960s alongside its historical riverfront roots. The Mississippi River dominates the northern landscape, characterized by a complex system of islands including Apple Island and Dardenne Island, and supported by an extensive Levee system protecting the agricultural lowlands. The rural character of the area is preserved in the placement of numerous community landmarks like Kampville School and Friedens Church.
