1968 Map of Summersville NE

About this map

Spring Valley defines the topographic character of this portion of Shannon County, where the Ozark Plateau is deeply dissected by a network of drainage systems including Bay Creek and Black Valley Creek. The landscape reflects a mix of conservation and rural community life during the late 1960s, anchored by the Flat Rock State Wildlife Area and the Alley Spring State Forest. Local heritage is concentrated at the intersection of forest and clearing, where Flat Rock Ch and its accompanying Flat Rock Cem stand near the Flat Rock Lookout Tower. A notable geological feature, the Forty Acre Sinkhole, highlights the karst topography prevalent in this region. Further south, the presence of Black Pond Cem and an unnamed Mine provide evidence of early family settlements and small-scale resource extraction embedded within the rugged timberlands.
