About this map

The settlement of Quincy anchor's the southern portion of this Hickory County landscape, while Bentonville sits further north along a network of county roads. The terrain is deeply defined by the winding course of the Little Pomme de Terre River and Hogles Creek, which flow toward the northern reaches of the Harry S Truman Reservoir. This area is characterized by numerous hollows and ridges, including the prominent Limestone Ridge and Tick Ridge, creating a dissected topography that has historically influenced local road patterns.

For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for several rural burial grounds, such as Mount Zion Cemetery, Cobb Cemetery, and Bird Cemetery. These sites, along with Harper Cemetery and Beyers Cemetery, are scattered across the landscape near named landmarks like Turnip Top Hollow and Bird Hollow. The intricate naming of drainage features like Cover Branch and Little Hogles Creek reflects a localized geography tied closely to the watershed of the reservoir.
