1963 Map of Pure Air

About this map

Pure Air serves as the central community on this rural landscape at the edge of the Sullivan and Adair County line. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Spring Creek and Little Mussel Creek, which carve through the townships of Morrow, Union, and Liberty. This mid-century survey illustrates a classic Missouri agrarian pattern where small family cemeteries are the primary landmarks across the rolling acreage. Genealogists and local historians can find the locations of Daniels Cem, Campbell Cem, and Ringo Point Cem, each strategically placed near former homesteads and the drainage basins of Billy Creek and Hog Creek. The map provides a precise look at the township and range boundaries that structured local land ownership during this era.
