About this map

Weingarten and the surrounding hills of Ste. Genevieve county showcase a landscape defined by deep-set hollows and a storied mineral history. In this 1980 survey, the Missouri Pacific railroad cuts a clear path across the terrain, passing north of the Catholic community at Our Lady of Help Sch. The map records a cluster of heritage settlements including Offenburg and New Offenburg, which neighbor a network of Copper Mines along Copper Mine Creek.

Hydrography is dominated by the winding course of Establishment Creek and its many tributaries like Big Bottom Creek. To the west, the Rocky Ridge Ranch area features a distinct chain of private waters, including Lake Wanda Lee, Lake Anne, and Lake Susan. Historical transit is represented by the Old Potosi Road, while local industry and recreation appear through several quarries and a Golf Course near Zell.
