1960 Map of Mist NW

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Bearhouse Creek and its many tributaries, including Miller Creek, define the landscape of this rural Arkansas territory at the start of the 1960s. The map illustrates a primarily agricultural and timbered region where community life centered around small country churches and family burial grounds. Notable landmarks for local history include Pleasant Grove Ch in the west and Center Point Ch near the northern boundary. The intricate network of waterways like Wolf Creek, Lost Creek, and Holley Creek dictates the placement of the sparse road system. Along the southern edge, the border between Drew and Ashley counties is clearly delineated, crossing through the winding path of Haw Branch. Genealogists may find value in the specific locations of Jordan Cem, Cotham Cem, and Judkins Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the area's early settlement families.
