About this map

Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery and the adjacent Jefferson Barracks Veterans Hospital anchor the northern edge of this suburban landscape where the Mississippi River meets the Meramec River. The residential growth of Oakville and Mattese is captured here in detail, showing a network of schools such as Wohlwend Sch and Troutwein Sch alongside numerous religious institutions including Nazareth Convent and the Monastery of St Clare.

The riverfront geography is defined by limestone bluffs and bottomlands, from Cliff Cave County Park to the low-lying American Bottoms across the state line in Illinois. This 1991 survey reflects the area's transition into a mature suburban corridor, while preserving evidence of its natural landmarks like Chesley Island and the rugged topography near Bee Tree County Park. Small settlements like Flamm City and Ten Brook remain visible along the river's winding course.
