1984 Map of Cherry Valley West

About this map

L'Anguille River meanders through the heart of this Arkansas landscape, defining a complex drainage system that includes Mc Cracken Ditch and Wolf Pen Slough. The settlement of Cherry Valley stands near the eastern edge, showing the town's footprint as it appeared during the early 1980s. The map illustrates a meticulously managed agricultural environment where numerous creeks, such as Hydrick Creek, Cooper Creek, and Prairie Creek, have been integrated into a network of levees and ditches to control the delta waters. A prominent transmission line cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle, bridging the gap between Wolf Creek and the neighboring rural tracts. This topographic study captures the precise boundary where Poinsett and Cross Counties meet, revealing how the natural waterways and man-made drainage projects have shaped local property lines and land use in this river valley region.
