1972 Map of Molino

About this map

The South Fork Salt River drainage basin defines the landscape of this rural Audrain and Monroe County borderland. Several local congregations and their associated burial grounds serve as the primary community anchors, including New Hope Ch and its neighboring New Hope Cem, alongside Midway Ch and Olivet Ch. The map provides a detailed view of the Missouri countryside in the early 1970s, where small settlements like Molino and Skinner are connected by a network of local roads. Industrial activity is concentrated near Youngs Creek at the Quarries, while agricultural life is reflected in the placement of the Hi-Way R-3 Sch. Water management and monitoring are evident at the Gaging Station located along the river's upper reaches, providing a look at the hydrological infrastructure of the era.
