1951 Map of Lewis Hollow

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Current River snakes through the northeast corner of this terrain, marking a landscape defined by deep, naming-rich drainage patterns in the Ozark foothills. The map reveals a mid-century rural infrastructure centered on one-room education, with Lewis Hollow Sch, Black Valley Sch, and Willow Springs Sch distributed across the townships of Jackson, Jasper, and Casto. In the northwest, the Hartshorn Lookout Tower stands as a primary landmark for forest management and navigation. The topography is intricately detailed with locally named features like Hieronymus Hollow, Burr Oak Basin, and Skunk Pond, showing a way of life deeply connected to the narrow valleys and ridges. A Quarry in the southern section hints at local resource extraction, while the network of unimproved roads and creek crossings like those at Black Valley Creek and Sumac Creek illustrates the area's isolation before modern highway development.
