1951 Map of Oak Mills

About this map

Oak Mills and the bluffs of the Missouri River anchor this mid-century look at the border between Kansas and Missouri. The landscape is a patchwork of rural school districts and community centers, including School No 20, Corson Sch, and Wyman Sch. The presence of the Missouri Pacific and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroads illustrates the vital transportation corridors that shaped the Walnut and Kickapoo townships. In the river bottomlands, the distinctive curves of Bean Lake and Cottonwood Slough reveal the shifting course of the river before modern engineering fully stabilized the banks. Genealogists can find several small burial grounds, such as Mt Gillian Cem and the Van Winkle Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the families who settled this fertile river valley.
