- I am interested in the history of small logging rail lines in SE Missouri
I'm an Undergraduate student at MSU pursuing a degree in Geography. As part of my research methodology I try to combine quantifiable data of physical geography processes with the resulting impacts on the cultural geography of any given region scale.
Currently I am researching the logging history of South East Missouri, particularly the "Missouri Mining and Lumber Mill" mills at Grandin and Eminence. As part of this research I am trying to map the smaller, light rail logging lines; either built by the logging companies or the railroads, and the impact on the natural and human built environments that would have had at the time.Interact
