1970 Map of Renault

About this map

The Missouri Pacific corridor defines the western edge of this 1970 landscape, running parallel to the Miss R and Beagles Island. Between the river bluffs and the upland prairies, several small agricultural settlements like Maeystown, Fults, and Renault anchor the community. The topography is marked by significant karst features and drainage patterns, including Saltpeter Cave and the winding course of Maeystown Creek. Local genealogy is particularly well-represented here through a dense network of family and parish burial grounds, ranging from the Dick Cem in the central hills to St Marys Cem near the southern boundary. This map reveals a transition from the alluvial bottomlands of the Mississippi River to the dissected uplands, where small-scale industry like a Quarry and local landmarks such as Wetzler Lake and Cavanah Lake dot the countryside.
