1956 Map of Table Rock Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Table Rock Dam (Under Construction) stands as the centerpiece of this mid-century survey, capturing the massive engineering project as it began to transform the White River valley. The map documents the landscape just before the completion of the reservoir, showing the original winding river channel upstream of the dam site and the established waters of Lake Taneycomo to the northeast. Settlement patterns of the Ozark hills are preserved through several small country churches and family burial grounds, including Cedar Valley Ch, Bowman Ch, and the Snowden Cem. This area, partly situated within the Mark Twain National Forest, features significant topographical landmarks like Compton Ridge and Table Rock Mountain. The survey also marks local industry of the era, such as a Borrow Pit and Quarry near the construction zone, while tracing the complex borders between Missouri and Arkansas.
