About this map

Quincy and Bentonville serve as central points in this Ozark borderland during the early 1980s, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Pomme de Terre River. The transition from the Alexander and Montgomery townships into the newly established waters of the Harry S Truman Reservoir highlights a period of significant geographical change for this corner of Hickory and Benton Counties.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense network of rural landmarks, including numerous country churches such as Freedom Ch and Union Ch, alongside established family burial grounds like Cobb Cem and Bird Cem. The topography is etched with named hollows and ridges, from Tick Ridge to Jennings Hollow, illustrating how early settlement patterns followed the drainage of Hogles Creek and its many branches.
