1960 Map of Mist

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Missouri Pacific rails traverse the southern lowlands of Ashley County, connecting the settlements of Snyder, Mist, and Montrose during the early 1960s. The landscape is defined by the transition from the rolling timberlands of the Bearhouse and Collins townships to the alluvial basins of the Bartholomew area. Notable for its high density of family and community landmarks, the map shows numerous rural institutions including Jordan Cem, Judkins Cem, and Mt Olive Ch. The drainage patterns are intricate, with Bearhouse Creek and Cutoff Creek feeding into the swampy breaks of the east, where Holloway Brake and New Providence Brake indicate a terrain dominated by seasonal overflow and wetlands. This survey provides a precise look at the rural infrastructure of the era, from the Lookout Tower near the Drew County line to the remote church at Berea.
