2024 Map of Mount Pleasant

About this map

Mount Pleasant serves as a central hub for this portion of the Ozark foothills, where the landscape is defined by the winding drainages of West Lafferty Creek and Macedonia Creek. The map documents a rural network of small communities and family burial grounds that trace the settlement history of Izard and Independence counties. Many of these locations, such as Lafferty and Gid, are oriented around the high ridges and deep hollows that characterize the local terrain.
