1963 Map of Mount Vernon

About this map

Mount Vernon sits along the western edge of this mid-century landscape where the border between Faulkner Co and White Co splits a region defined by several distinct ridges and creek valleys. The topography is shaped by prominent landforms such as Cadron Ridge, Bull Mountain, and Black Jack Mountain, with drainage provided by the winding Muddy and Little Bull Creek. The map documents a rural community structure established around numerous small churches and family burial grounds, including Union Hill Ch, Smyrna Ch, and the Hammons Chapel Cem.
