1949 Map of Jonesboro

About this map

The Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad forms a vital spine through this North Louisiana landscape, connecting the industrial center at Jonesboro to the smaller settlements of Wyatt and Dodson. The area is characterized by a dense network of creeks, such as Cypress Creek and Flat Creek, which feed into the Dugdemona River within the Kisatchie National Forest. This 1949 survey documents a rural society deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by the numerous country churches like Harmony Grove Ch and Spring Hill Ch that serve the outlying communities.
