1951 Map of Miami Station

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Van Meter State Park dominates the southeastern quadrant of this map, showcasing the dramatic bluffs overlooking the Missouri River bottomlands. The landscape reflects a mid-century agricultural and transit corridor, where the Wabash railroad cuts across the Wakenda Creek valley toward the settlement of Miami Station. This era shows a high density of small rural landmarks, including a cluster of family-named burial grounds like Adkins Cem and Cannon Cem, alongside community anchors such as Bethlehem Ch and White Rock Sch. The levee systems along the river and creek highlight the persistent engineering required to manage the floodplains of the Missouri River, which forms the winding boundary between Carroll and Saline Counties. Local industry is noted by a Quarry near the rail line, while the presence of Teteseau Lake and Coon Hollow suggests the varied terrain found just beyond the river’s edge.
