About this map

Allbright and the small settlement of Castor sit at the center of this Missouri landscape, where the Upper Castor River and its numerous tributaries have carved a series of named hollows. This 2011 survey reveals a region defined by its narrow valley floors and timbered ridges, including White Hollow, Wolfpen Hollow, and Red Sea Hollow. The presence of Britton Lake Dam and Lake Wopalänne suggests managed water resources in an otherwise river-fed terrain, while the rural road network, including Madison 313 and Madison 318, connects these isolated communities.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites throughout the quadrangle, such as Rickman Cemetery, Blaylock Cemetery, and Kinder Chapel Cemetery. These markers, along with family-named features like Moser Hollow and Pugh Hollow, provide a detailed record of the families who settled this portion of Madison County. The map also documents institutional sites like Camp Number 32, located near Thompson Hollow in the southern reaches of the study area.
