1962 Map of Moreland

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Carrion Crow Mountain dominates the central landscape of this Pope County region, creating a natural divide between the northern settlements and the expanding community of Atkins to the south. The 1960s terrain is characterized by a dense network of rural churches and family cemeteries, suggesting a deeply rooted community structure in townships like Moreland and Convenience. Significant watercourses such as Gum Log Creek and Cove Creek wind through the valleys, supporting small clusters of habitations like Economy and Burnett Cove. Observations from 1977 aerial photography, noted in purple, reveal evolving land use patterns, including a prominent Pipeline corridor and several Gravel Pits that underscore the local resource extraction alongside traditional farming. From the heights of Iron Ore Mountain to the banks of Galla Creek, the map provides a clear picture of mid-century Arkansas life where remote mountain ridges met growing valley crossroads.
