1980 Map of Witts Springs
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
Witts Springs and the surrounding highlands of Searcy County are defined by a complex network of ridges and hollows within the Ozark National Forest. In the late 1970s, this area remained characterized by small, dispersed settlements and a landscape shaped by narrow watercourses like Lick Fork Creek and Bear Creek. The community of Welcome Home and the settlement at Imo represent the enduring rural footprint of the region, where life followed the contours of Giles Turney Ridge and Bradley Ridge. Local landmarks such as Pleasant Grove Ch and the Chinquapin Cem provide significant touchpoints for genealogical research, while the presence of a Gravel Pit and a Quarry indicate the localized extraction of resources. The map captures the transition from high points like Lick Owens Mountain and Housley Mountain down into deep drainages such as Sulphur Springs Hollow and Wassen Hollow.
