1984 Map of Cherry Valley West

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Cherry Valley and the surrounding agricultural lowlands of the Mississippi Alluvial Plain appear here during the mid-1980s. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways and drainage infrastructure designed to manage the flat terrain, including the meandering L'Anguille River and its various tributaries like Wolf Creek and Prairie Creek. The influence of the Missouri Pacific railroad is evident, providing a vital transportation artery for the region's rural economy. Along the Poinsett and Cross County line, the map documents a series of siphons, flumes, and ditches such as Mc Coy Ditch that highlight the intensive water management necessary for local cultivation. Smaller natural features like Wolf Pen Slough and Hydrick Creek intersect the grid-like pattern of roads and field boundaries, illustrating the persistent presence of the original drainage patterns amidst modern development.
