About this map

Brunot and the surrounding Ozark foothills appear here at the intersection of Iron, Madison, and Wayne counties during the late 1960s. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and timbered peaks, including Stony Mountain, Hickman Mountain, and Rocky Mountain. Family history is deeply rooted in this terrain, as evidenced by the numerous small burial grounds such as Brewington Cem, Lucy Cem, and Hunter Cem that dot the hillsides near Crane Pond Creek.

To the south, Sam A Baker State Park encompasses the area around Mudlick Mountain, where Mudlick Creek meets Logan Creek. The map records a rural network of jeep trails and small settlements like McCue and Beulah, as well as the flow of Big Creek through the valley floors. This survey documents the transition between the high ridges and the spring-fed creek bottoms that have sustained these communities for generations.
