1959 Map of Lakeview Heights

About this map

Lake of the Ozarks and the Osage River dominate the southern portion of this mid-century survey, where the river's winding course creates prominent landforms like Gross Point and Spring Br Cove. The landscape is a complex network of hollows and ridges, with drainage provided by Cole Camp Creek, Brushy Creek, and the long reach of Brickley Hollow. This era shows a rural Missouri structured around small community hubs, evidenced by the distribution of country schools such as Lutjen Sch, Ross Sch, and Byler Sch. In the north, active or recent industry is marked by several mines and a Tailings Pond near the headwaters of Cole Camp Creek. Local genealogy is well-represented through family-named landmarks and small burial grounds including Failer Cem and Mossy Cem, alongside spiritual centers like Yeager Ch and the Ozark Tabernacle.
