1968 Map of Ironton
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The Arcadia Valley serves as the focal point of this late-1960s survey, where the interconnected communities of Ironton, Arcadia, and Pilot Knob established themselves against the backdrop of the St. Francois Mountains. The local economy and history are deeply tied to the mineral wealth of the region, evidenced by numerous mines and the Site of Ft Davidson, a reminder of the area's strategic importance during the Civil War. The Missouri Pacific railroad winds through the terrain, following the valley floors past College Hill and through the dramatic Royal Gorge.
