1949 Map of Lexington East

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Lexington sits at a strategic bend where the Missouri River and Crooked River meet, anchoring a landscape of fertile bottomlands and rolling bluffs in the late 1940s. The map illustrates a community shaped by education and industry, notably featuring the Wentworth Military Academy and the Wentworth Country Club on the heights above the river. Evidence of the region’s coal mining history is visible through several marked Mine Dumps scattered near the Missouri Pacific railroad lines, which follow the river's path and the drainage of Lick Fork.
