Poplar Bluff anchors the northern reaches of this mid-1960s landscape, where the southern Ozark foothills meet the alluvial plains of the Missouri Bootheel. The survey illustrates a complex water management system of drainage ditches and sloughs, such as Ash Slough and Hunting Slough, designed to reclaim the lowlands between the Black River and the Cache River. This transition from hills to bottomlands is marked by numerous small rural congregations and cemeteries that reveal the settlement patterns of Butler County, including the Little Brown Ch, Bethlehem Temple, and Ashcraft Cem.
