1965 Map of Liberty

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Liberty and its surrounding Clay County landscape show a mix of institutional history and industrial expansion in the mid-1960s. The prominent campus of William Jewell College and the Del Bufalo Seminary overlook the city, while several burial grounds including Fairview Cemetery and the Odd Fellows Home Cem provide important records for local genealogists. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Shoal Creek and the wide bend of the Missouri River to the south, where the industrial character of Cement City and Sugar Creek stands in contrast to the academic and residential areas to the north.
