About this map

The Ouachita River meanders through the southwestern corner of this quadrangle, leaving behind a complex network of oxbows and backwaters like Lower Old River, Fishers Lake, and Lower Old Brake. This 1970s landscape reflects a transition between river-bottom wetlands and upland settlements. The St Louis Southwestern Railroad cuts through the southeastern section, connecting small communities such as Vanduzer, Warner, and Camark.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds including Harmony Grove Cem and Broughton Cem near the central crossroads of Harmony Grove. The map also captures local infrastructure like the Camden Municipal Airport (Harrell Field) and several rural religious centers such as St Paul Ch and Bethel Temple. An old railroad grade running north toward Amy provides a record of former transit corridors that once served the timber or agricultural needs of the region.
