1951 Map of New Frankfort

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Missouri River forms the central artery of this landscape, dividing the bottomlands of Brunswick from the upland ridges of Cambridge. This mid-century survey documents a dense network of rural infrastructure, where small school districts and cemeteries were the primary anchors of the community. Named landmarks such as Garnett Sch, Good Luck Sch, and Walker Sch appear alongside family-associated burial grounds like Sleyster Cem. The topography reveals the complex hydrology of the river basin, featuring the Cut-off and Bowling Green Lake in the north, while the southern terrain is defined by deeply carved drainages like Edmondson Creek and Buck Creek. The small settlement of New Frankfort sits on the eastern bluffs, serving as a focal point for the surrounding homesteads and small-scale farms that characterized Saline County in the early 1950s.
