1965 Map of Van Buren North

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Current River defines the landscape of this northern Carter County region, carving a deep winding path through the Ozark hills. In the mid-1960s, this area was characterized by its public lands and scattered rural communities, with the Peck Ranch State Wildlife Management Area occupying the western reaches and the Mark Twain National Forest bordering the river to the south. The small settlement of House Creek and the northern outskirts of Van Buren provide anchors for local history, while names like Beal and House suggest the early footprints of the community. Genealogists can find several family-named burial sites throughout the hollows, including Collins Cem, Maberry Cem, and Galbraith Cem. The terrain is famously porous, featuring prominent springs such as Mill Creek Spring and geological landmarks like Richbark Cave, which highlight the region's complex karst topography.
