1964 Map of Avery

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Bartholomew Bayou meanders deeply through this Lincoln County landscape, defining the agricultural and hydrological character of the region in the mid-1960s. The map reveals a dense network of country churches and schools that served the small agricultural communities of Avery, Meroney, and Fresno. Significant cultural landmarks like the Indian Mounds near Avery Brake sit alongside more modern developments such as the Fish Hatchery and numerous reservoirs like Pinchback Reservoir. The survey captures a moment when local infrastructure was heavily influenced by the terrain, with Persons Bridge crossing the bayou and multiple sloughs such as Deep Slough and Panther Slough cutting through the fields. For those researching family history, the placement of Wells Bayou Sch and small cemeteries like Mackwee Cem provides precise locations for long-standing community centers in this rural Arkansas Delta environment.
