About this map

The Missouri River cuts a wide path through this mid-1930s landscape, defining the border between Clay and Jackson counties. On the north bank, Missouri City sits tucked against the bluffs along the Wabash line, while the southern floodplain is dominated by the agricultural settlement of Atherton and the meandering course of the Little Blue River. This survey reveals a deeply established rural infrastructure of small district schools, such as Hunt Sch, Blue Valley Sch, and Sharp Sch, which served the farming families scattered across the river bends and uplands.
