1964 Map of Cornerstone

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Arkansas River meanders through the heart of this landscape, carving out a complex network of oxbow lakes and islands along the border of Jefferson and Lincoln counties. The terrain is defined by its relation to the river, featuring substantial landforms like Huffs Island and Cooper Island, protected by a prominent Levee system. This mid-century survey captures a rural agricultural and hunting region punctuated by small settlements like Cornerstone and Sweden. The map provides significant genealogical value, documenting numerous community landmarks including Morning Star Church, Union Church, and Kinnlen Star Church, alongside family-named burial sites such as Brent Cemetery and Nickelson Cemetery. To the north, the Bayou Meto State Game Area preserves the bottomland character of the Little Bayou Meto drainage, while features like Swan Lake and Round Cypress Brake illustrate the region's ancient hydrological history.
