2017 Map of Mineral Springs South

About this map

Millwood Lake dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, its complex shoreline defining the boundary where Howard and Sevier Counties meet. This 2017 survey details a region of diverse water systems, from the course of the Saline River to smaller drainages like Brushy Cr and Plum Cr. The settlement pattern reflects established rural communities such as Mineral Springs, Tollette, and Saratoga, interspersed with several small cemeteries that offer significant value for genealogical research, including Shiloh Cem and the High Hill Cem in the southeast. A notable topographic feature, the Devils Backbone, rises near the community of Okay, providing a distinct contrast to the wetland areas and lake margins. The map also captures the network of local transit, including State Hwy 332 and various named routes like Bright Star Rd, which connect the scattered hamlets and historic sites across this Howard County terrain.
