About this map

Old Eucha and the surrounding river valleys in the Ozark foothills are documented here during the mid-2010s. The landscape is defined by the impounded waters of Lake Eucha to the north and the winding course of Saline Cr through the center of the quadrangle. This area of Delaware County is characterized by numerous named drainages, or hollows, that break the upland plateaus, such as Groundhog Hollow and Big Acorn Hollow.

Genealogists will find significant value in the location of several family and community burial grounds, including Old Eucha Cem, Euwasha Cem, and Welsh Cem. The settlement of Kenwood sits in the west-central portion of the map, serving as a primary point of reference for the rural road network. The terrain transition is sharpest near Tagg Flats, where the high ground drops into the complex drainage systems that feed the regional watershed.
