1964 Map of Harviell

About this map

Poplar Bluff anchors the northern edge of this survey, where the heavy rail infrastructure of the St Louis-San Francisco Missouri Pacific lines converges. Moving south toward the Missouri Arkansas border, the landscape transforms into a complex network of waterways and drainage sloughs, including Big Slough and Caney Slough. The rural character of Butler County is defined by a high density of small community centers, evidenced by numerous country churches such as New Light Ch, Tabernacle of Charity, and Friendship Ch.
