1916 Map of Neosho
USGS Topo · Published 1941About this map
Neosho serves as the central hub of this 1914 survey, where the St Louis and San Francisco and Kansas City Southern railroads converge amidst a landscape defined by lead and zinc mining. Industrial activity is concentrated to the northeast near Granby and Granby City, evidenced by the Tiger Mine and Mascot Mine. The map reveals a dense network of rural education, featuring numerous named institutions like Possumtrot School, Jaybird School, and Blackjack School that once anchored these Ozark communities. Along the winding course of Shoal Creek, small settlements such as Tipton Ford and Newtown appear alongside early motor routes like the Scenic Road and Seneca Road, illustrating the era's transition from rail-dependent commerce to localized travel.
