About this map

The White River carves a complex path through this landscape, defining a region characterized by dramatic oxbows and river-bottom topography. This environment is marked by named features such as Hurricane Bend and Coahoma Point, where the river's historical shifts have left behind a dense network of water bodies including Goose Pond, Horseshoe Lake, and Eagle Nest Lake. The map reveals a rural settlement pattern focused on small hubs like Aberdeen and Casscoe, connected by a web of local roads and landings.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, such as Roe Cemetery, Mount Pisgah Cemetery, and Hunters Chapel Cemetery. Historical river crossings and commerce points are evidenced by Preston Ferry and landings like Ashford Landing. The southern portion of the map shows modern water management through features like the Daugherty Reservoir Dam and a series of smaller dams on the Payer and McFall lakes.
