2012 Map of Neosho East

About this map

Neosho occupies the northwest corner of this survey, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of water sources including the notable Big Spring. Moving east from the city, the terrain transitions into a rural area marked by the winding courses of Hickory Creek and Bullskin Creek. This region is punctuated by small, established communities such as Aroma, Sweetwater, and Christopher, which are connected by a grid of county roads and highways like Highway H. The presence of multiple springs, including Hearrell Spring, McMahan Spring, and Elm Spring, suggests a landscape shaped by its hydrology, long supporting local agriculture and small-scale settlement. Genealogists may find value in the clear identification of local burial grounds like Elm Spring Cemetery and Maness Cemetery, while the southern reaches of the map include the descriptively named Pottershop Hollow.
