Pre-1945 state roads 550+

A 1939 list published by the SRD lists the state roads from 1 to 545. I don't know if 546 to 549 were used (they may have been reserved for more airports). In 1941 the legislature began to add every tiny road to the system and the SRD stopped dutifully assigning numbers in sequence, so it's harder to determine where state roads 550+ were. The following are those I have found on maps and elsewhere, along with their post-1945 number (if any). One useful source is the 1943-44 biennial report.
