1947 Map of Ware

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Egypt Mills and the riverfront landings of the late 1940s define this stretch of the Mississippi River where Illinois and Missouri meet. The landscape is split between the alluvial floodplains of Union County and the steep, wooded bluffs of the Shawnee National Forest. This era shows a transition in transportation, where the heavy infrastructure of the Illinois Central Missouri Pacific and St Louis San Francisco railroads run parallel to the shifting river channels and features like Vancill Towhead.
