About this map

Sumner serves as the primary hub of this 1949 topographic study, situated at the junction of the Wabash and Burlington railroad lines. The surrounding landscape in Linn and Chariton Counties is defined by a sophisticated system of water management, visible in the numerous levees protecting agricultural land near Locust Creek and Turkey Creek. This era reveals a network of rural education and community centers, including Kaye Sch, Taylor Sch, and the Forker Boomer PO.
