1967 Map of Everton

About this map

Everton and Valley Springs anchor this mid-century look at the Arkansas landscape where Boone and Marion counties meet. The survey reveals a region defined by its creek valleys and high ridge communities like Pleasant Ridge and Harmon. Transport history is visible in the Old Railroad Grade that winds through Olvey, marking the path of former commerce before modern highway development. Local history is deeply embedded in the land, with numerous family and community sites such as Britton Cem, Smith Cem, and Jones Cem scattered throughout the drainage areas of Crooked Creek and Clear Creek. The geography transitions from the open expanses of Prairie to the more wooded terrain near Crawford Mountain, while natural features like Settlester Cave and the Quarry near Valley Springs indicate the diverse geological and industrial character of this Ozark plateau region.
