USGS Topo · Published 1939About this map
The Cuivre River and its many meandering tributaries, including Lead Creek and Sandy Creek, dominate this rural landscape in Missouri. Published just before the 1940s, the map reveals a dense network of one-room schools and country churches that served the agricultural townships of Waverly, Millwood, and Nineveh. The St Louis and Hannibal RR provides a vital transportation corridor through Silex and Whiteside, connecting these farming communities to broader markets.
