1939 Map of Tarkio

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Tarkio serves as the prominent hub of northwest Missouri on the eve of World War II, distinguished by the campus of Tarkio College and the local Tarkio Airport. The landscape is a dense network of rural school districts and community centers, from the Moulton School in the north to the Houston School near the southern border. This 1939 survey captures a highly organized agrarian society where every few miles contains a named schoolhouse or church, such as English Grove Ch or Center Grove Ch.
