1968 Map of Udall

About this map

The North Fork Norfork Lake reservoir dominates the southeastern landscape of this Ozark County survey, marking the transition from riverine valley to a controlled waterway. Before the inundation reaches its full extent, the historical geography of the area is defined by the winding course of Bryant Creek and the North Fork Norfork Lake. This 1960s study captures the community of Tecumseh near the confluence and the landmark Dawt Mill further upstream, where the river's power was historically harnessed. The map provides significant genealogical value for the region, documenting several family and community landmarks such as Sallee Cem, Parker Cem, and Clear Springs Ch. The rugged topography, characterized by features like Tecumseh Ridge and Howards Ridge, illustrates the dispersed settlement patterns typical of this portion of the Missouri-Arkansas border region before modern development.
