About this map

Linden serves as a focal point for this survey of Cass County, showing a landscape defined by small rural communities and winding creek systems. The town is marked by local landmarks like the Rodeo Ground and Lions Park, while a network of secondary roads connects it to outlying settlements such as New Colony and Roach. Family history is woven into the terrain through several country churches and cemeteries, including Center Grove Ch and Echols Cem.

The presence of numerous Strip Mines, a Gravel Pit, and various Strip Mine operations indicates an active local extractive industry during the late 1960s. These industrial sites are interspersed among natural features like Harvey Lake and the drainages of Frazier Creek and Crooked Branch. This period of the county's history shows a stable agricultural and industrial balance before later modern developments, preserved here through detailed topographic records of its roads and fence lines.
