1963 Map of Nind

About this map

Nind sits at the heart of this rural Missouri landscape, where the borders of Sullivan, Adair, Macon, and Linn counties converge. Surveyed in the early 1960s, the map reveals a traditional Midwestern agricultural pattern defined by a network of drainage ways and township lines. The winding path of Mussel Fork and its tributary Little Mussel Creek dominate the southwestern portion, while Walnut Creek flows through the northeast. For those researching local family history, the map preserves the exact locations of civic centers like Willow Branch Sch and College Mound Sch, alongside several rural burial grounds. The presence of Mt Carmel Ch and family-named cemeteries such as Hall Cem and Cheeseman Cem indicates the centers of community life in this quiet corner of the state before modern consolidation changed the rural landscape.
