1948 Map of Clear Springs

About this map

The Ozark plateau of southern Missouri is defined here by a dense network of upland schoolhouses and rural churches serving dispersed farming communities. Small settlements like Solo, Tyrone, and Grogan anchor the landscape, while the convergence of the North Prong Jacks Fork and South Prong Jacks Fork creates a complex drainage system through Sargent and Hutton Valley. Genealogical interest is found in the numerous named schools, including French Sch, New Liberty Sch, and King Mtn Sch, which illustrate the community-centric organization of the era before major district consolidation. Religious life is equally visible through landmarks like Steely Chapel, Moores Chapel, and Bethany Ch. In the southwest corner, the St Louis and San Francisco RR provides a critical transportation link, passing near the Frisco Res and into the Willow Springs area, marking the boundary where rail infrastructure met the deep hollows of the hills.
