1973 Map of Banks
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
Moro Creek serves as a natural boundary dividing this timber and agriculture landscape between Calhoun and Bradley counties in the early 1970s. The settlement of Banks sits at a critical junction of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad and the Warren and Pacific Road, anchoring a rural network of small communities including Tinsman, Lanark, and Summerville. This survey captures the region's mid-century character, where dispersed homesteads are supported by local institutions like Pleasant Grove Church and Dickinson Church. Extensive gravel pits clustered near Jacks Creek suggest a localized extractive economy. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of family-named burial grounds, such as McFarland Cemetery, McLeod Cemetery, and Childs Cemetery, which remain key landmarks in this south-central Arkansas landscape.
