1976 Map of Eldridge East

About this map

Eldridge and Dove anchor this rural Laclede County landscape, surveyed in the mid-1970s. The terrain is characterized by deep hollows and high ridges, notably Goodwin Hollow and Eldridge Hollow, which channel local drainage toward the Dry Auglaize Creek. This topographic detail reveals the sparse, agriculture-based settlement patterns of the era, where small family-named cemeteries such as Hufft Cem, Mizer Cem, and Rogers Cem dot the hillsides, often near local landmarks like Zion Ch or the Goodwin Calvary Ch. Cultural features of the time are evident, including a Drive-in Theater situated along the main roadway and a Radio Tower on a high peak near Holman Hollow. The map provides a clear record of these Ozark foothills before more modern development altered the local road and community structure.
