1981 Map of Jerome
USGS Topo · Published 1982About this map
The low-lying delta lands of Southeast Arkansas come into focus along the Missouri Pacific rail corridor, which serves as the primary spine for settlements like Jerome, Bufford, and Hudspeth. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Bayou Bartholomew to the west and the oxbow waters of Wallace Lake, revealing a topography shaped by alluvial drainage. This late 1970s survey captures an agricultural economy supported by an intricate network of flumes and the emergence of commercial aquaculture at the Fish Farm in the southeast. Genealogy and local history are anchored by rural gathering points such as Silver Mound Ch and its accompanying Silver Mound Cem, along with Pleasant Grove Ch and Bethel Temple. The map also documents educational and civic infrastructure from the era, including the Bellaire Academy and the Dermott Municipal Airport.
