1956 Map of Forest Green

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Chariton River and its labyrinthine oxbows dominate this central Missouri landscape, where the shifting waters have carved out features like Horseshoe Lake and Duck Lake. This mid-century view shows a rural economy centered on small riverfront settlements such as Forest Green and the legacy of early industry at Lewis Mill. The complex hydrology of the region is evident in the confluence of the Middle Fork, East Fork, and Little Chariton River, which together create a fertile but flood-prone basin.
