1954 Map of New Madrid
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
New Madrid sits at the apex of a dramatic bend in the Mississippi River, serving as a focal point for this mid-1950s survey of southeastern Missouri. The landscape is defined by the rigid geometry of drainage ditches and section lines, a testament to the intensive land reclamation of the Bootheel region. Major rail corridors including the St Louis Southwestern Ry and the Missouri Pacific RR connect agricultural hubs like Lilbourn, Marston, and Kewanee.
