1963 Map of Dillon

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

St Louis San Francisco railroad tracks run through the northern reach of this Phelps County landscape, connecting the established community of St James with the settlement at Dillon. The terrain is defined by a dense network of winding waterways, including Dry Fork, Bourbeuse R, and Lanes Fork, which carve through the ridges. This mid-century survey reveals a rural landscape deeply rooted in family and faith, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds and places of worship such as the Smith-Laney Cem, Thomas Cem, and Bellview Ch. Educational life is scattered across the district at sites like Flat Grove Sch and Dean Sch, while industry is represented by a small Quarry and Claypit. A specialized glimpse of local infrastructure is visible at the Gaging Station and Dean Ford crossing, showing how residents navigated the Ozark waterways before modern bridge expansions.
