About this map

Clark National Forest dominates this section of Reynolds County, where the terrain is carved by the Black River and its numerous tributaries. The map documents the mid-century social and industrial landscape of the Ozarks, centered around the small settlements of Reynolds and Corridon. Evidence of local industry is visible through the Fletcher Mine and a series of Charcoal Ovens located near the town of Reynolds, while the Jay Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the wooded ridges.

Genealogical interest is particularly high on this sheet, which preserves the locations of several remote family and community burial grounds including Weible Cem, Davis Cem, and the Corridon-Reynolds Cem. Rural life is further anchored by community landmarks such as Bee Fork Ch and the Corridon-Reynolds Sch, providing a clear picture of the area's infrastructure before later 20th-century developments altered the local population centers.
