About this map

The James River and White River carve winding paths through this section of the Ozarks during the early twentieth century. This survey, conducted shortly after the turn of the century, depicts the region before modern hydroelectric dams transformed these river valleys into massive reservoirs. The landscape is dotted with small agricultural settlements like Forsyth, Galena, and the namesake mineral spring site of Ponce de Leon. River life is central to the era's economy, as evidenced by several vital crossings including Hensley Ferry, Mabry Ferry, and Coombs Ferry.
