1939 Map of Tiff

About this map

Big River and the Mineral Fork wind through this part of Washington County, Missouri, at a time when the landscape was defined by small milling and mining operations. The settlement of Tiff sits along the Missouri Pacific railroad line, while several outlying communities and family-named schools dot the surrounding hills. This 1937 survey reveals a transition in land use, showing the Thunderbolt CCC Camp established near Washington State Park, signaling the era of Civilian Conservation Corps development in the Ozarks. Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy landmarks like Cannon Mines, Shibboleth, and the Cruise Mill, along with scattered rural centers like Mud Town and Fertile. The map also preserves the locations of early educational and religious sites, including Belle Fountain Sch, Tiff Sch, and Oakland Ch.
