About this map

Couch and the small settlement of Jeff anchor this 2017 survey of the Missouri Ozarks, characterized by an intricate network of hollows and ridges. The landscape is defined by its water sources, including Underwood Spring, Duncan Spring, and Hart Spring, which feed into local waterways like Frederick Cr and the S Fork Janes Cr. Genealogists will find interest in the documented locations of Norman Cem near the northern boundary and Rose Hill Cem further south.

The map reveals a rural economy dependent on a dense grid of county roads, such as Co RD A and Oregon Co Rd 264, navigating around named landforms like Haspen Ridge and Fraley Hollow. The terrain's natural drainage patterns are clear through the numerous branches and creeks, including Mooney Br and Trace Cr, illustrating the rugged topography that has historically shaped the development of Oregon County.
