About this map

Potosi anchors the landscape of Washington County in the early twentieth century, serving as a hub for the St L I M and S RR line that cuts through the northeast. This Missouri mining and timber region is defined by a dense network of river drainages and hollows, where small settlements like Belgrade and Caledonia are situated along the Big River and its many tributaries. The terrain is marked by prominent landmarks such as Little Pilot Knob, which overlooks a rural economy supported by local industry at sites like Hunters Mill.
