1970 Map of Oak Grove Heights

About this map

The James River and its numerous tributaries, including Panther Creek and Sawyer Creek, carve a detailed network of drainages across this Missouri landscape. The community of Oak Grove Heights serves as a local hub, while the St Louis - San Francisco railroad corridor provides a critical transportation spine through the southern half of the map. This 1970s record captures a mix of traditional rural life and modern educational development, anchored by the Logan-Rogersville High Sch near the Wilkerson Cem. Local history and genealogy are well-represented by numerous country churches such as Shiloh Ch, North Star Ch, and the Mt Sinai Chapel. The map also reveals specialized land use from the Buena Vista Track to the local Mine and a Steel Bridge crossing, illustrating the diverse economic and social infrastructure of the area.
