1928 Map of Cardareva

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

The Current River snakes through the center of this Ozark landscape, serving as the primary geographical axis for local life between the world wars. Following a 1925 survey by J.B. Leavitt, the map documents a remote region of Shannon Co and Carter Co defined by its deep hollows and high peaks like Thorny Mtn and Cardareva Mtn. The river crossings, including Williams Ford and Goose Bay Ford, were vital connections for small communities such as Exchange and Deslet. Education was highly localized, evidenced by the dense network of rural schoolhouses such as Whitehall School, Button School, and Paint Rock School. The presence of Paint Rock Bluff and Banker Cave highlights a terrain where natural landmarks served as both navigational aids and community fixtures.
