About this map

The Current River winds through the heart of the Mark Twain National Forest in this late-1990s survey of southern Missouri. The landscape is defined by deep drainages and family-named hollows, including Jinks Hollow, Possum Hollow, and Whetstone Hollow, which feed into the river system. At the river's edge, distinctive river features like Hargus Eddy and the high point of Deer Leap mark the recreation-rich terrain, supported by the Float Camp and various boat access points. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the community of Briar serves as a local hub near Tattle Creek. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of numerous local burial sites such as Bennett Cemetery, Rosson Cemetery, and Shirley Cemetery, as well as the Wilson Church, which provide a clear record of the area's rural settlement pattern.
