About this map

McKinney Bayou meanders through the lowlands of Miller County and Lafayette County in the early 1950s, highlighting a landscape defined by the shifting course of the Red River. This survey reveals the agricultural and community structure of the river bottomlands before major modern development. Local centers such as Valley Gin and Pleasant Valley anchor the rural landscape, supported by a network of local congregations including Independence Ch and Fairland Ch. The intricate river morphology is visible in features like the Old Channel, Hunters Island, and numerous oxbow lakes such as Bee Lake and Oak Lake. These water bodies and bends, like Slay Bend and Dixon Bend, document the natural hydrological history of the Arkansas borderlands, while landmarks like Belch Bridge and the Floodgate show efforts to manage this volatile river environment.
