1937 Map of New Home

About this map

The Osage River meanders through this section of Bates County, defining a landscape of dramatic river loops like Double S Bend and Big Shoe Bend. Surveyed in the late 1930s, the map reveals a rural economy shaped by both agriculture and industry, notably the Black Diamond Mine. Small settlements and community hubs such as New Home, Nyhart, and Athol are connected by the Missouri Pacific railroad and a network of early drainage infrastructure, including Lateral Ditch No 3 and the Drainage Ditch.
