1915 Map of Eminence

About this map

The Current River and Jacks Fork river systems dominate this Missouri Ozarks landscape, carving deep hollows and providing the primary corridors for settlement and transportation. At the confluence, Eminence and West Eminence serve as central hubs, while smaller, more isolated outposts like Horse Hollow and Delaware are scattered across the wooded hills. The ruggedness of the terrain is evident in the dozens of named hollows, including Coppermine Hollow and Ice Log Hollow, which reflect early local industry and navigation.
