1946 Map of Richwoods

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Old Mines and the settlement of Richwoods anchor this mid-century topographic study of the northeastern Ozarks. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Mineral Fork and Indian Creek, where numerous rural schools like Ebo Sch and Hulsey Sch served a population dispersed among the hollows. The presence of Old Mines in the southeast corner reflects the region's deep lead-mining history, while the sprawling Clark National Forest covers much of the southern terrain. This era of the landscape is caught just before modern development, showing a complex network of creeks such as Fourche a Renault Creek and Turkey Creek alongside landmarks like the High Point Tower. Genealogists may find value in the specific locations of country churches and burial grounds, including Souls Chapel and the Fourche a Renault Cem.
