1940 Map of Worland

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Amoret and Worland anchor this 1940 survey of the western Missouri border, where the Linn Co Bates Co line separates Missouri from Kansas. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Osage River and a dense network of early rural infrastructure. Small-scale coal mining and agriculture are evidenced by the numerous local schools and cemeteries that served these tight-knit communities. The transit corridor is particularly busy, with the Kansas City Southern and Missouri Pacific railroads running parallel north-to-south, facilitating movement through the Valley. Researchers will find significant genealogical value in the distribution of rural landmarks, from the Salem Cem and Mays Cem to the scattered educational centers like Victory Sch and Johnson Sch that dot the townships of Homer and Charlotte.
