1962 Map of Neck City
USGS Topo · Published 1991About this map
Neck City and the surrounding mining district of Jasper and Barton Counties are meticulously documented in this early 1960s survey. The landscape is defined by the North Fork Spring River and its tributaries, including Duval Creek and Slater Branch. One of the most striking visual elements is the presence of Tailings piles near the riverbank, indicating the heavy lead and zinc mining legacy of the Tri-State district. Rural life centers on small settlements like Cossville and Tuckers Corner, while the decommissioned Old Railroad Grade traces the former path of industrial transport across Mineral township. Local genealogists will find several burial grounds mapped, such as Shapley Cem and Cedar Bluff Cem, alongside the New Providence Ch, providing a clear view of the area's social and religious centers before major modern alterations.
