About this map

The Blackwater River and its meandering tributaries dominate this pre-war landscape at the junction of Saline and Pettis counties. A robust network of country schools and churches serves the rural population, with family and community names marking the terrain, from Holy Cross Ch in the north to Prairie Hill Ch in the south. The Missouri Pacific railroad anchors the southern tier, connecting the settlements of La Monte, Dresden, and Hughesville.
