Wappapello Lake

Wappapello, Missouri

Construction Pictures



These pictures were taken by my Grandfather Tom Sutton when the Wappapello Lake was under construction.  He was involved in the construction of the lake. The pictures were taken approximately 1940.
Wappapello Lake is located in the Ozark foothills of southeast Missouri,
approximately 20 miles north of Poplar Bluff, Missouri,
and 40 miles west of Bloomfield, Missouri, my home town.
