1963 Map of Vanduser
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Vanduser and the small settlements of Crowder, Tanner, and McMullin sit amidst a heavily engineered agricultural landscape along the Scott and Stoddard County line. The terrain is defined by the legacy of the Little River Drainage District, evidenced by the prominent spoil banks that flank the channelized Little River. These man-made features reflect the massive early 20th-century effort to reclaim the swampland of the Bootheel for cultivation. The St Louis - San Francisco railroad provides the primary north-south spine for the region, connecting these rural hubs. Local life centers on landmarks like Pilgrim Rest Ch, Friendship Ch, and Carpenter Cem, while the natural remnants of the landscape persist in the winding paths of Crooked Slough and Mud Slough near Clines Island.
