1890 Map of Magazine Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Arkansas River navigation and the growing St. Louis and Fort Smith Railroad define the commerce of Logan and Franklin counties during this late 19th-century survey. The landscape is characterized by the prominent elevation of Magazine Mountain, which sits between the river valley and the Ouachita National Forest to the south. Early settlements like Paris, Ozark, and Booneville are established as local hubs, while smaller post offices such as Burnett Springs (Corley P.O.) and vanished-era river stops like Roseville and Patterson's Bluff provide essential grounding for genealogists. The map details a transition from river-based transport to rail, with coal-mining interests emerging near Coal Hill and Hartman. Prominent landforms including Petit Jean Mountain and Backbone Ridge frame the drainage basins of Petit Jean Creek and Six Mile Creek.
