1906 Map of Barber

About this map

Devils Backbone and White Oak Ridge dominate this turn-of-the-century landscape, where early Arkansas settlements are situated along the complex drainage network of the Petit Jean Creek. The presence of a Toll Bridge over Crow Creek highlights the importance of the valley transit routes between ridges during this period of development. Small rural centers like Burnville, Dayton, and Barber are depicted at a time when local topography dictated the placement of roads and homesteads. The map reveals a transition from the elevated peaks of Jennings Hill to the flatter expanses of Coops Prairie Ridge near Ipavia. From the northern reaches of Oak Grove to the southern waters of Big Petit Jean Creek, this survey provides a look at the early 1900s interior of Sebastian County, before modern infrastructure bypassed these ridgeside communities.
