1950 Map of Helena

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Mississippi River and its massive alluvial plain dominate this mid-century landscape, where a dense network of bayous and meandering channels defines the Arkansas and Mississippi borderlands. Settlement patterns follow the high ground and the paths of major rail lines, including the Chicago Rock Island & Pacific RR and the Missouri Pacific RR. Significant agricultural operations like the Bemis Plantation are visible alongside established river towns such as Des Arc and Cotton Plant.
