1951 Map of Arkinda

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The St Louis and San Francisco railroad cuts diagonally through the landscape of the Arkansas-Oklahoma border, anchoring the small settlement of Arkinda. This 1951 survey reveals a rural landscape defined by township boundaries like Caney, Jewell, and Little River, where local life centered around small country schools and community burial grounds. Educational centers such as Oak Grove Sch and Miller Sch served the surrounding farmsteads, while the terrain is marked by numerous family and community cemeteries, including Strawn Cem, Eastport Cem, and New Home Cem. The western edge of the map transitions into the Ouachita National Forest, where the topography becomes increasingly complex around the headwaters of Caney Creek. Several gravel Pits suggest local extractive activity, highlighting the transition from the timbered heights of the forest to the agricultural plains bisected by the railway.
