About this map

The Fishing River drainage system dominates the landscape of southern Clay County in the mid-1930s, supporting a dense network of rural schools and small community centers. Excelsior Springs stands as the primary urban hub on the eastern edge of the map, while Kearney serves as a central rail point. The infrastructure of the era is defined by the intersection of major rail lines including the Chicago Burlington and Quincy and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific, which influenced the growth of settlements like Mosby and Holt.
