1968 Map of De Valls Bluff SE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Cache River dominates this landscape, winding through a complex of wetlands and bayous along the border of Prairie and Monroe counties. This 1968 survey details a region characterized by its river-and-rail economy, where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific and St Louis Southwestern railroads intersect the lowlands. The presence of numerous oxbow lakes and sloughs, such as McFarland Brake, Horseshoe Lake, and Channey Slough, indicates a dynamic alluvial environment subject to seasonal change. Small settlements and points of interest like Dagmar and Eden are situated near the higher ground of the Upper Surrounded Hill. For genealogists and local historians, the map provides precise locations for the Philadelphia Cem and Choctaw Cem, as well as the riverfront at Dobbs Landing, offering a clear view of the rural infrastructure before modern developments altered the local drainage patterns.
