About this map

White River navigation and mountain ridge lines define this portion of the Ozark foothills during the early 1970s. The landscape is marked by the Indian Treaty Boundary cutting across the terrain, separating the northern hills from the developing settlements to the south. Along the river, Earnheart Island and Foushee Island sit near the Lock and Dam No 2 (Inactive), while the Missouri Pacific railroad follows the northern bank.

Settlement patterns center on the communities of Concord, Almond, and Banner, where local life is anchored by landmarks like Banner Ch and several family burial grounds, including Starnes Spring Cem and Bellmore Cem. The topography is a complex network of hollows and peaks, such as Brock Mountain and Round Mountain, with natural features like Blowing Cave and Bailey Falls punctuating the wooded drainages of Brier Creek and Greenbrier Creek.
