1959 Map of Marmaduke
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
The St Louis Southwestern RR forms a sharp diagonal through the heart of Greene County, anchoring the town of Marmaduke and the northern outskirts of Paragould. This mid-century landscape is defined by its complex drainage network, where the St Francis River and Arkansas Missouri boundary weave through a series of significant island ridges like Poplar Ridge and Brushy Island Ridge. The eastern portion of the map reveals the intricate hydrology of the St Francis River bottomlands, featuring Boland Slough and Gum Slough Ditch. Inland, the rural character of the era is evident in the dense distribution of small community landmarks, including New Friendship Ch and Lake Side Sch. Genealogists will find a wealth of family history markers in the numerous burial grounds, such as Cudd Cem and Harrison Cem, which are scattered throughout the agricultural grid.
