About this map

Barren River Lake dominates the center of this Barren County landscape, marking a significant era of hydraulic transformation along the Barren River. The map, originally surveyed in the 1950s and updated through the early 1990s, illustrates the complex intersection of older rural settlements like Austin and Cedar Springs with the development of the State Resort Park. These recreational developments, including the Browns Ford Boat Ramp and Park Supt Res, were superimposed over an existing network of family farms and country churches. Local history is deeply embedded in sites like Pleasant Home Ch and Durham Springs Ch, while the presence of numerous Oil Wells and Oil Wells across the uplands near Pea Ridge highlights the region's extraction history. The Austin-Tracy Sch serves as a central community landmark in a terrain defined by deep creek valleys like Peter Creek and Hurricane Creek.
