1931 Map of Manes

About this map

The Ozark plateau along the border of Wright County and Texas County is captured here during a period of localized rural self-sufficiency in the early 1930s. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Gasconade River and its many tributaries, including Beaver Creek and Roubidoux Creek. This detailed terrain mapping reveals a dense network of country schools that served isolated farming communities, with names like Lone Star Sch, Montgomery Sch, and Hopkins Sch punctuating the ridges and valleys. Small river-based industries are still evident at Grimes Mill and Lathams Mill, while local spiritual life centered on gathering places like Evening Shade Ch and Union Chapel. Small settlements such as Manes, Lynchburg, and Graff acted as the primary nodes for this rugged interior region before modern highway consolidation.
