About this map

Marthasville and New Haven anchor this mid-century Missouri landscape, where the wide corridor of the Missouri River serves as the dividing line between Franklin and Warren counties. The river valley is defined by low-lying bottomlands like La Charrette Bottom and numerous islands, including Boeuf Island and Watkins Island. This 1940s topography captures the region's dense network of rural infrastructure, notably the high concentration of one-room schoolhouses such as Bierbaum Sch, Kruegerville Sch, and Ziegenmeyers Sch that once served small agrarian communities.
