1954 Map of Big Piney

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Fort Leonard Wood and its expansive military reservation dominate the northern portion of this Ozark landscape, where the Big Piney River carves a winding path through the limestone bluffs. This 1954 survey captures several rural communities and family landmarks that define the region's mid-century character, including the settlement of Bloodland and the riverside Big Piney. The map is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it locates numerous burial grounds like Bradford Cemetery and Friendship Cemetery, along with several small rural schools such as the Mooney Hollow School and the Pine Hollow School. To the south, the terrain transitions into the Mark Twain National Forest, showing a network of hollows like Musgrave Hollow and creek beds such as Roubidoux Creek that once supported timber and agrarian livelihoods before the era of modern highway development.
