Owen's Mill and the Alleged Civil War Site. National Register Assessment of Two Historic Sites in Southwest Missouri

Abstract

This report presents in detail the results of site visits, interviews, and documentary research relating to Owen's Mill in Cedar County, Missouri and an alleged Civil War site in St. Clair County, Missouri. Owen's Mill is located on the left bank of Bear Creek just downstream of the Stockton Lake Project. The alleged Civil War site overlooks the Sac River within the Harry S. Truman Dam and Reservoir. The term 'alleged' is included in the name of this site because only local tradition suggests a Civil War artillery association, also referred to as the Reed Site. A National Register assessment was made on both sites. Keywords: Historic sites.
