1938 Map of Worland

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Amoret and Worland sit within a landscape defined by the crossing of the Kansas City Southern and Missouri Pacific railroads just before the second World War. This 1938 survey illustrates the rural social structure of Bates County, Missouri, through a high density of country schools and family burial grounds. One can trace the distribution of education via Victory Sch, Johnson Sch, and Klondike Sch, while local spiritual and communal life is anchored by Independence Ch. The hydrology of the region is dominated by the winding Osage River and the engineered Bates County Drainage Ditch, reflecting early 20th-century efforts to manage the wetlands and creek bottoms of Mulberry Creek and Walnut Creek for agricultural use.
