1943 Map of St. Paul

About this map

White River headwaters dominate the landscape of the Boston Mountains in this mid-century survey of Madison and Washington Counties. The settlement at St Paul serves as a local hub along State Route 16, while smaller communities like Combs, Delaney, and Brashears Junction mark the transition from river bottom to high ridges. The map reveals an intricate network of local history through its many remote burial sites, such as Mt Liberty Cem, Asher Cem, and Burrell Cem. These cemeteries, often paired with nearby landmarks like Mountain View Sch or Shumate Ch, provide critical waypoints for genealogists tracking family roots in the rugged hills of the Ozark National Forest. Elevations climb steeply toward Pinnacle, Potato Knob, and High Rock Mtn, while the Middle Fork White River carves through the western reaches past Durham and Crosses.
