2014 Map of Corning

About this map

Corning anchors this landscape in Clay County, Arkansas, showing the developed town grid and its surrounding agricultural drainage network as it appeared in the early 2010s. The geography is defined by the winding course of the Black River, which creates complex hydrological features like Sweet Clover Bend and Winding Slough. To the north, the smaller settlement of Moark sits near the Missouri state line, framed by Moark Ridge and the Moark Ditch. This area is a patchwork of engineered waterways, including the Byrnes Ditch and Rose Pond Lateral, which illustrate the intensive efforts to manage the low-lying terrain for cultivation. For those researching family history, the map identifies several local burial grounds, including Allmandinger Cem and Redenbo Cem, alongside notable landmarks like the Bennetts Ferry Bridge and Victory Lake.
