USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
New Franklin serves as a primary hub for this portion of Howard County, where the Missouri Kansas And Texas railroad lines converge. The settlement pattern reflects a mid-century rural economy defined by township divisions including Richmond, Franklin, and Moniteau. A dense network of local schools once supported these farming communities, such as Spanish Needles Sch, Mt Zion Sch, and Cherry Grove Sch, many of which were becoming historical markers by the time of the 1970s revisions.
