About this map

Huzzah Creek meanders through the central corridor of this Crawford County landscape, defining a topography of steep hollows and ridges within the Mark Twain National Forest. The settlement of Davisville sits at a bend in the creek, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural valley. The map reveals a dense network of family-named landmarks and ancestral sites, including the Pyatt Cem, Skaggs Cem, and Donhammer Cem, which are scattered among the timbered hills.

Transport and community life are marked by the Potosi Salem road and distinct landmarks like the Fox Theater Ch and Lookout Ch. The numerous named hollows, such as Sugartree Hollow and Jim Team Hollow, indicate a deeply dissected terrain where early settlement followed the narrow valley floors. To the southeast, Holiday Lake and nearby disposal ponds represent more modern infrastructure amidst the traditional landscape of Sullivan Hill and Bald Knob.
