1986 Map of Rover

About this map

Rover anchors the northwestern corner of this mid-1980s landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of hollows and named springs. The Ozark plateau character is evident in the numerous water sources such as Jolliff Spring, Watson Spring, and Granny Meyers Spring, which historically dictated the placement of small farmsteads and rural communities. In the southern portion of the sheet, the Big Spring River flows through the area, supported by tributaries like Watered Fork and Orchard Branch. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the mapped locations of Redburn Cem, Union Hill Cem, and Howell Cem. The presence of crossing points like Elliott Ford and Culp Ford along Warm Fork and its branches reveals the traditional travel routes through the valley before more modern infrastructure predominated.
