1959 Map of Lakeview Heights

About this map

Lake of the Ozarks and the Osage River dominate the southern portion of this landscape, where the rising waters created complex shorelines like Spring Br Cove and submerged portions of the Cole Camp Creek valley. Further north, the terrain transitions into a network of ridges and hollows defined by the Williams and Cole townships. The map documents a rural community structure through family-named landmarks and local institutions, including the Lutjen Sch and Ross Sch, alongside several small mining operations indicated by Mines and Mine symbols near the northern boundary. Small centers of life like Edmonson and the Ozark Tabernacle anchor the upland roads, while the newer development at Lakeview Heights sits near the water's edge. Genealogists will find value in the specific locations of several burial grounds, including Failer Cem and Mossy Cem, which remain tied to the surrounding drainage of Mossy Creek and Ross Creek.
