1968 Map of Des Arc NE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Clark National Forest dominates this landscape, where the rugged terrain of the St. Francois Mountains transitions across the Iron and Madison County line. The 1968 field-checked survey reveals a quiet rural landscape defined by narrow hollows like Reader Hollow and the winding course of Marble Creek. Isolated communities and crossroads such as Minimum and Jewett anchor the southeastern corner, while the interior is largely traversed by an intricate network of jeep trails and a prominent pipeline. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with family-named landmarks and small burial grounds, including the Shoemaker Cem, Kelley Cem, and Davis Cem. Institutional life is centered around local congregations at Liberty United Ch and Black Mountain Ch, situated near the base of Patterson Mountain.
