1979 Map of Lake Thunderhead

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Lake Thunderhead dominates the southern landscape of this Missouri and Iowa borderland, its dendritic fingers reaching into the surrounding townships of Sherman and Franklin. This late-1970s survey captures the region as the reservoir altered the local drainage of North Blackbird Creek, creating a new recreational focal point complete with a Campground and Roadside Park. The map preserves the older rural fabric of the border counties, showing the small settlement of Genoa and scattered spiritual centers like Mt Zion Ch and Wesley Chapel. Transportation and infrastructure are represented by the Unionville Airport and a prominent Water Tank near the lake's eastern shore, while the upland areas remain defined by traditional agricultural section lines and small family burial grounds including Livingston Cem and Union Cem.
