1955 Map of Day

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Chestnut Ridge serves as a dominant topographical spine through this portion of the Ozarks, dividing the drainages of Woods Fork Bull Creek and Bear Creek. The map records a rural landscape defined by narrow hollows and high ridges, where community life centered on small nodes like Day and Cook. A cluster of country churches, including New Haven Ch, Oak Ridge Ch, and Pleasant Shade Ch, are scattered across the terrain, often located near family-named landmarks like Goodnight Hollow and Jackson Hollow. The eastern portion of the sheet is largely occupied by the Mark Twain National Forest, punctuated by the Hilltop Lookout Tower and natural features such as Anderson Cave. The inclusion of Nash Cem provides a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing early families in the borderlands of Christian and Taney counties.
