1968 Map of Osage SW

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Logan Mountain and the headwaters of the Kings River define this corner of the Ozarks, captured as it appeared in the late 1960s. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of hollows, including Pickle Hollow, Lawson Hollow, and Smelley Hollow, which carve deep into the plateau and channel runoff into the larger river systems. Small social hubs like Dinsmore and Sloverville are mapped alongside rural landmarks like Liberty Ch and Elkhorn Ch, providing critical spatial data for those researching family history in this corner of Newton County. In the southeast, the terrain transitions toward the Buffalo River drainage, specifically within the boundaries of Lost Valley State Park. This survey reveals the traditional settlement patterns where life followed the orientation of Kenner Creek and Whitley Creek, showing how isolated homesteads and Hopewell Cem were positioned relative to the rugged topography.
