This is from the 1876 Atlas of Jefferson County, Missouri. The main section is Township 39, Range 6 East. The blue highlighted areas are the pieces of property owned at that time by my great-great-grandfather, Reuben Garnett Waggener. The rectangular parcel contained the family house and the road running through it is the Waggoner Road. The adjacent yellow parcel was owned by his son, John Edmond Waggener. The town of Rush Tower is more or less north east, on the Mississippi River. |
