1939 Map of Fredericktown

Beyond the industrial sites, rural life is marked by a dense network of country schools and family-named cemeteries. Features like Wesley Chapel, Hildebright Cem, and the Sebastian Sch suggest established communities in the valleys between peaks like Knob Lick Mountain and Mt Devon. The St. Francis River winds through the western half of the quadrangle, passing near the isolated Silver Mine settlement, while the smaller hamlets of Slabtown and Stringtown offer a look at the residential patterns of the era.
