1949 Map of Oak Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Bourbeuse River meanders across the northern section of this Ozark upland, carving a deep valley that contrasts with the surrounding agricultural plateaus. The landscape reflects a deeply rooted rural society in the late 1940s, defined by its network of family cemeteries and one-room schoolhouses serving the local district. Small, named settlements like Oak Hill anchor the community, while the Jake Prairie Road provides a primary corridor through the southern terrain. This survey, coordinated by the Missouri Geological Survey, captures a specific era of connectivity, evidenced by the Airway Beacon on a high ridge and the distribution of institutions like High Point Sch and Threemile Sch. For the genealogist, the sheer density of burial grounds—including Pinnell Cem, Morris Cem, and McIntire Cem—offers an invaluable record of the families who settled the Crawford and Gasconade county line.
