1964 Map of Cane Creek

About this map

Cane Creek and the surrounding woodlands of northern Grant County are defined by an intricate network of waterways draining toward the Saline River valley. This 1964 survey, with updates from the early 1980s, reveals a rural landscape where small communities like Bradley and Orion are connected by a web of backroads and the Railroad Trail. Local landmarks such as Tenmile Hill rise above the numerous creek branches, including Hurricane Creek and Maylow Creek. The settlement pattern is anchored by local spiritual and memorial sites, including Marlow Ch, Bethel Ch, and the Gum Springs Cem. Human impact on the land is visible through a prominent Pipeline, several Gravel Pits, and the private Flying W Ranch Landing Strip, illustrating a mix of traditional agriculture and modern infrastructure in mid-century Arkansas.
