About this map

Malden Air Force Base dominates the western landscape of this Missouri bootheel survey, reflecting the area's strategic aviation presence in the mid-1950s. The region is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including Ditch No 22 and Bess Slough, which transformed this low-lying terrain into productive farmland. This agrarian development is marked by a dense grid of rural institutions, such as Sugar Tree Ch & Sch and Vinson Sch & Ch, which served dispersed family farms across Stoddard County and Dunklin County.
