1951 Map of Cedar Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Cedar Gap sits at a high point of the Burlington Northern railroad, where the tracks bisect the divide between Finley Valley and Pleasant Valley. This 1951 survey, updated in the mid-1980s, reveals a landscape defined by its rural institutions, with small country schools like Mountain Side Sch and Casto Sch serving the surrounding hollows. The area is heavily marked by its watercourses, including the headwaters of Bryant Creek and Finley Creek, which have carved deep drainages like Panther Hollow and Smelter Hollow. Genealogy researchers will find significant detail in the numerous family and community landmarks, such as the Gentry Cem and Gentry Sch, alongside several historic churches including Lead Hill Ch and the Mt Zion Cem & Ch. The map provides a clear look at the intersection of Webster, Wright, and Douglas counties during a period of established mid-century upland farming.
