1966 Map of Leslie

About this map

The Bourbeuse River and Meramec River meander through the southern reaches of Franklin County, Missouri, during the mid-1960s. This survey captures a rural landscape where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad serves as the primary East-West transit corridor, connecting the settlements of Leslie and Beaufort. The terrain is defined by a dense network of creek valleys including Brushy Creek, Dierking Branch, and St Johns Creek, interspersed with local industry such as a Claypit and various Quarry sites.
