About this map

Lake Of The Ozarks and its irregular shoreline dominate the northern half of this landscape, shaped by the Grandglaize Arm and surrounding parklands. The map reveals the early development of Lake of the Ozarks State Park, which includes a large campground and the Lee C Fine Memorial Airport. The topography is defined by numerous hollows such as Patterson Hollow and Coakley Hollow, which drain toward the intricate river system.

Rural life in Camden and Miller counties is anchored by small settlements and community landmarks like Passover and the town of Toronto in the south. Genealogists can trace family connections through sites like Freedom Sch, New Hope Ch, and the Popplewell Cem. The presence of the Kaiser Lookout Tower and Ozark Caverns highlights the area's transition into a recreational destination while maintaining its traditional agricultural and creek-bottom character along Dry Auglaize Creek.
