1965 Map of Dalark

About this map

The Ouachita River meanders through the southwestern corner of this Clark County landscape, where the rural topography is defined by the transition between the Manchester township and the surrounding timberlands. In the mid-1960s, the local economy and infrastructure were tied to the Old Railroad Grade passing through Gravel Junction, signaling a shift from earlier rail-dependent industries. Small community clusters like Griffithtown and Dalark anchor the eastern side of the map, while numerous family and community landmarks such as Strong Cem and Atchley Cem provide significant touchpoints for genealogical research.
