1903 Map of O'Fallon

About this map

The Mississippi River and Missouri River converge in this late nineteenth-century survey, creating a complex landscape of fertile river bottoms, islands, and chutes. Between these two great waterways, the terrain is defined by the Cuivre River and a network of creeks like Dardenne Creek and Peruque Creek. Transportation at the turn of the century centered on the Wabash R. R. and the St. Louis and Kansas City Line, which connected growing agricultural hubs such as Wentzville, O'Fallon, and St. Peters.
