1956 Map of Table Rock Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Table Rock Dam stands as a massive focal point of this 1950s survey, capturing the landscape just before its permanent transformation by the White River's impoundment. The map identifies specific areas to be submerged by the coming reservoir, including the riverfront near Table Rock and the bottomlands along Long Creek. Further south, the settlement of Oasis sits near the Oasis Bluff, a community that would eventually be impacted by the rising waters. The terrain is marked by ridges and hollows, such as Compton Ridge and Maple Hollow, which define the rugged character of the Mark Twain National Forest. Local infrastructure and genealogy are well-documented through scattered country churches like Cedar Valley Ch and Bowman Ch, alongside family burial grounds including Snowden Cem and Goodall Cem. This record provides a clear look at the valley's established rural life before the reservoir's completion.
