2021 Map of Isabella

From the Baker Cem in the north to the Charity Cem in the south, these small sites are scattered across the ridges above Mark Twain National Forest land. The terrain is a maze of named geographic features such as Wilkinson Knob and Gate Post Hollow, connected by a web of county roads that follow the high ground between the fingers of the reservoir. This cartographic study illustrates the enduring settlement patterns where small communities like Locust persist amid the rugged topography of the White River basin.
