1968 Map of Mc Curtain

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

McCurtain and Ironbridge anchor this industrial landscape during a period of transition for the local topography. In the north, blue hatching marks the impending expansion of the Robert S Kerr Reservoir into the Sans Bois Creek valley. The map documents an economy rooted in extraction, visible through numerous Strip Mines, Quarries, and prolific gas wells scattered across the Sans Bois Mountain and Campground Mountain ridges. Transportation patterns are clearly defined by the Fort Smith And Van Buren corridor and an Old Railroad Grade passing south of town. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of local landmarks like the Garden of Memories Cem, Mt Olive Ch, and Center Point Ch, providing a precise look at the community before the reservoir reached its full elevation.
