1930 Map of Nebo
USGS Topo · Published 1930About this map
Pleasant Hill and the surrounding river bottomlands of Pike Co are defined by an intricate network of sloughs and cutoffs that trace the ancient movements of the Mississippi River. This 1920s-era landscape, captured by surveyors F.W. Hughes and J.A. Duck, reveals a highly localized rural infrastructure of small schools like Franklin Sch and Stockland Sch serving isolated farming communities. The Alton Railroad provides a vital east-west link through the hills, while the Chicago and Alton Railroad skirts the riverbank near Quincy Junction.
