Full Title: Lower Mississippian Rocks Of The East-Central Interior
Author: Paris B. Stockdale
From the original introduction: Certain aspects of this report touch upon the stratigraphy throughout most of the lower Mississippian outcrop areas of the east-central interior of the United States, but the region of special field study by the writer is that which stretches from Fountain County, west-central Indiana, south-southeastward through southern Indiana into Kentucky, thence southeastward, eastward, and northeastward around the margin of the Lexington Plain of Kentucky. The belt of outcrop continues thence northward across Ohio from Adams and Scioto counties at the Ohio River on the south to Erie, Lorain, Cuyahoga, Geauga, and Ashtabula counties bordering Lake Erie on the north (PI. 1). This continuous, horseshoe-shaped outcrop belt has a length of approximately 700 miles. However, only the 450-mile portion through Indiana and Kentucky has been the object of detailed field observation.
