About this map

The Bourbeuse River and Meramec River carve through Franklin County, defining a mid-century landscape of rural school districts and small riverfront settlements. This 1940s survey reveals a dense network of local education, featuring institutions like Port Hudson Lutheran Sch, Old Beaufort Sch, and Krakow Sch that served the farming communities of St Johns T and Boone. The industrial and transport needs of the era are visible through the St Louis San Francisco railroad line, the Old Acid Mine, and specialized river crossings such as Smith Ford and Peters Ford.
