1964 Map of Gillham

About this map

Grannis and Gillham serve as the primary hubs along the Kansas City Southern railroad, which bisects this portion of the Ouachita foothills in the mid-1960s. The landscape is characterized by a transition from traditional rural settlements to modern infrastructure, evidenced by the presence of a Lookout Tower and the early footprint of the Gillham Reservoir. Local social centers are anchored by community structures like Holly Springs Church and School No 47, while small industrial activity is marked by a Gravel Pit near Coon Creek.
