1968 Map of Glover

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Big Creek winds through the heart of this Iron County landscape, anchoring a valley where the Missouri Pacific railroad facilitated local industry. In the late 1960s, the community of Glover was notably defined by its Lead Smelter and associated infrastructure, including a prominent Water Tank. This industrial presence contrasts with the surrounding expanse of the Clark National Forest, which covers much of the high ground including Vickery Mountain and Grassy Mountain. Small settlements like Chloride and Sabula appear along the rail line and creek, serving as focal points for rural life. For genealogists, the map is a vital resource, plotting several family and community burial sites such as Huff Cem, Hurst Cem, and the combined church and burial ground at Emilys Chapel Cem. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of drainage including Little Creek and Richland Creek, while a Cave and various Jeep Trails suggest the localized geography of the Ozarks.
