1970 Map of Bentonville South

About this map

Bentonville and Rogers dominate the northern and eastern portions of this map, showing the rapid expansion of these Ozark communities between the late 1960s and 1980. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of Osage Creek, which flows south past a notable Minnow Farm toward Cave Springs. This area of Northwest Arkansas reflects a transition from rural agricultural land to a more dense suburban network, with several small family cemeteries such as Dodson Cem and Hart Cem preserved amidst the shifting landscape.
