1939 Map of Modoc

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

The Mississippi River dominates this 1939 survey, its course marked by historical meander lines from 1833 and 1835 that reveal the shifting boundary between Arkansas and Mississippi. Along the river’s western banks in Phillips County, a dense network of plantation-era infrastructure is visible, including the Missouri Pacific railroad line and numerous tramways serving timber or agricultural interests. The landscape is a complex system of sloughs and bayous, such as Humphrey Slough and McGehee Bayou, indicating a terrain heavily influenced by seasonal flooding and river migration.
