1962 Map of Formosa

About this map

Woolverton Mountain and Lick Mountain dominate the topography of this central Arkansas landscape, where the border of Van Buren and Conway Counties cuts through a network of creeks and small farming communities. Small settlements like Formosa, Claude, and Center Ridge are connected by winding roads that follow the ridges, avoiding the deep draws carved by Hogans Creek and Remove Point Creek. This survey reflects a deeply established rural social fabric, anchored by numerous landmark churches such as Union Hill Ch and Mountain View Ch. Genealogy researchers will find significant detail in the mapping of local burial grounds, including the Woolverton Mountain Cem and Halbrooks Cem, which sit alongside family-named terrain features that define the regional geography during the early 1960s.
