1973 Map of Mc Kinney

About this map

L' Aigle Creek and its many tributaries, including Caney Creek and Irish Bill Creek, carve through the timbered landscape of the Arkansas coastal plain. This 1970s record of the border between Cleveland and Bradley Counties shows a rural area defined by scattered church congregations and family burial grounds. Small communities such as Hollis and Mc Kinney are centered around crossings of historic thoroughfares like the Old Camden Road and Cow Ford Road. Local history is preserved in the locations of Moseley Chapel and Wheeler Springs Ch, alongside geographic markers such as Parnell Springs. While much of the land is dedicated to the timber industry, specialized features like a Gravel Pit and the lowlands of the Ouachita Valley suggest the local economic reliance on the terrain's natural resources.
