1970 Map of Curtis

About this map

Terre Noire Creek meanders southeastward across this Clark County landscape, joined by its South Fork and a network of named tributaries like Waggle Creek and Dry Branch. In the northwest, the settlement of Curtis sits along the Missouri Pacific railroad line, while the central and eastern portions of the map are defined by the elevated Copeland Ridge. This upland area is a hub for community life, anchored by the Copeland Ridge Community Hall and the Copeland Ridge Cem. The map reveals a highly engineered water management system in the bottomlands, specifically the North Boat Ditch which cuts a straight line through the creek basin to control drainage. Rural life is further evidenced by scattered spiritual and civic landmarks, from Hartz Chapel and Harmony Hill Ch to the quiet Rawles Hill Cem and Bethel Springs Cem near the settlement of Red Springs.
