1968 Map of De Valls Bluff SE

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Cache River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a complex network of wetlands and oxbow lakes including Horseshoe Lake, Goose Lake, and McFarland Brake. The terrain is punctuated by the curious elevations of Upper Surrounded Hill and Lower Surrounded Hill, which rise above the river's floodplains. Transportation and industry are centered on the parallel lines of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific and St Louis Southwestern railroads, which facilitated the movement of goods through small settlements like Dagmar and Eden. In the eastern section, a system of wells and flumes suggests an agricultural landscape reliant on managed water, while the Dagmar State Game Area preserves the bottomland hardwood character of the region. Local heritage is preserved at sites like Philadelphia Cem and Choctaw Cem, serving as markers for the scattered communities of Allendale and Dobbs Landing.
