1939 Map of Lees Summit

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Lees Summit serves as the focal point of this Jackson County survey, showcasing a landscape defined by the winding course of the Little Blue River and its various tributaries like Mouse Creek. The region exhibits a mid-century rural-to-suburban character, with traditional farming tracts in Prairie and Brooking townships beginning to shift around established nodes like Knobtown and Vale. Significant social infrastructure is evident through a high density of rural schoolhouses, including Stony Point Sch, Oakland Sch, and Cedar Hill Sch, reflecting the community's localized educational network before the consolidation era.
