1962 Map of Jerusalem

About this map

Jerusalem sits at the intersection of rural life and natural resource extraction in this Arkansas landscape, where the Jerusalem Gas Field underlies the farmland. To the north, the terrain transitions into the heavily wooded ridges of the Ozark National Forest, defined by landmarks like Kincannon Mountain and Evans Mountain. The map reveals a community structured around its spiritual and commemorative sites, from Thompson Chapel in the south to Mt Zion Ch and the Cedar Grove Ch near Rock Creek.
