1963 Map of Lecoma

About this map

Lecoma sits near the crossing of Phelps and Dent counties, serving as a focal point for this rural Missouri landscape. The terrain is defined by a network of karst features and seasonal drainages, most notably the Dry Fork and Little Dry Fork which carve through the Cold Spring and Watkins townships. Local industry and land use are evident in the scattered quarries and distinctive Charcoal Ovens, indicating a history of resource extraction and processing.
