1942 Map of Mt Pleasant

About this map

Cushman Mines and the Clubhouse Mine define the industrial landscape of the southeastern corner of this quadrangle, signaling the area's importance in mineral extraction during the mid-20th century. The settlement of Mt Pleasant serves as a local hub, while the Missouri Pacific River Line tracks the southern border along the White River. This 1942 survey captures a rural Ozark community organized around family-named hills and hollows, such as Reeves Hill and Tanner Hollow, where local life centered on small schoolhouses and churches like Cedar Grove Sch and Mt Lebanon Ch.
