About this map

Clay mining dominates the rural landscape of Gasconade County in this early 1980s look at the region surrounding Owensville. Dozens of Claypits and Kilns are scattered throughout the hills, particularly near the St Louis-San Francisco railroad line. This industrial activity sits alongside long-established rural institutions, including numerous family and community burial grounds such as Old United Methodist Cem, Branson Cem, and Richardson Cem. The map provides a detailed view of small settlements like Canaan and Bland, as well as the more modern development at Peaceful Valley Lake. Waterways like Red Oak Creek and Clear Fork snake through the terrain, which is also marked by specialized landmarks such as a Lookout Tower and a Pumping Station near the southern border.
