1956 Map of Forsyth

About this map

Forsyth serves as a focal point in this Taney County landscape, situated near the dramatic confluence of Swan Creek and the White River. The mid-century topography reflects the significant hydrological changes of the era, specifically the expansive waters of Bull Shoals Lake and Lake Taneycomo. This survey, conducted shortly after the creation of the Bull Shoals reservoir, shows the impact on local drainage and settlement patterns along Beaver Creek and Cedar Creek.
