1971 Map of Marshall North

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The agricultural plains of Saline County meet the burgeoning infrastructure of Marshall in this 1970s survey. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Salt Fork Missouri River, which is flanked by the Gulf Mobile and Ohio and Pacific railroads. These rail lines illustrate the historic transit corridor that facilitated the growth of rural outposts like Fairville and Norton. Near the southern edge of the sheet, the expansive campus of the Marshall State School and Hospital and the presence of a Drive-in Theater reflect the mid-century social and recreational development of the community. Rural life is anchored by landmarks such as Mt Carmel Ch and several small burial sites, including Odell Cem. High points like Montague Hill rise above the drainage networks of Cow Creek and Thrailkill Branch, providing a clear view of the transition from open farmland to the radio towers and civic utilities supporting the county seat.
