1966 Map of Shook

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Lake Wappapello dominates the southern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, its irregular shoreline reaching into the valleys of Lost Creek and Little Creek. The settlement of Shook serves as a local hub near the confluence of the West Fork and East Fork, where Shiloh Church and Shiloh Cemetery mark the community center. To the north and west, the terrain rises into the protected timberlands of the Clark National Forest, characterized by numerous named hollows like Harper Hollow and Nagle Hollow. Genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and burial sites across the hills, including Thornton Cemetery, Helm Cemetery, and Jones Cemetery. The map also captures the upper reaches of the St. Francis River basin near McGee and the recreational access point at Lost Creek Landing, reflecting an era of transition between traditional upland farming and water-based recreation.
