2013 Map of Hollow Springs

About this map

Hollow Springs and the surrounding Cannon County landscape are defined by a complex network of ridges and hollows where small rural settlements have persisted for generations. In the northern reaches, Wildwood Mill and Mooretown sit near the headwaters of Redman Br and Bullpen Cr, illustrating the historical reliance on local water sources. The terrain is marked by numerous named features like Sinkhole Ridge, Rains Ridge, and Whiteoak Slash, suggesting a geography where drainage and elevation dictated the placement of homesteads and roads. To the south, communities such as Ivy Bluff, Midway, and Pocahontas are connected by winding routes like Hollow Springs Rd. This 2013 survey provides a clear look at the persistent rural character of the region, where family-named landmarks like Bob Williams Hollow and Sissom Hollow preserve the genealogical heritage of the area's early inhabitants.
