2024 Map of Cord

About this map

Cord and Dowdy anchor this landscape along the border of Independence and Jackson counties, where the high ground of the Ozark foothills meets the alluvial wetlands of the Black River. The mapping reveals a complex network of backwaters and oxbows, including Horseshoe Lake, Yoncopin Lake, and the Whisnant Old River, which trace the historical movement of the river channel across the bottomlands. For genealogists, the map identifies several local burial sites such as Happy Cem, Hopewell Cem, and Williams Cem, often located near crossroads or older family homesteads. The terrain is defined by the transition from elevations like Turkey Hill and Anderson Hill down to the sprawling swamp systems of Saltwork Slough and Milligan Slough. This modern survey documents the persistent rural character of these communities, where small settlements like Hazel Grove remain connected by long-established routes like Cord Rd and Elgin Rd.
