1930 Map of Pearl

The distribution of local schools, such as Village Green Sch, Summit Grove Sch, and Nebraska Sch, reveals a rural population clustered near river landings and upland ridges during the late 1920s. Notable infrastructure includes the Hartwell Pumping Sta and Fairbanks Pumping Sta, which managed the drainage of the eastern bottomlands. Settlements like Pearl and Kampsville serve as primary hubs, while smaller sites like Mozier Landing on the Mississippi River indicate the importance of waterborne transport to the regional economy.
