1981 Map of New Union

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The confluence of the Quachita River and the Saline River defines this riverine landscape in south-central Arkansas. Much of the area is protected within the Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge, characterized by a complex network of backwater brakes, sloughs, and lakes. The map shows the intricate natural drainage of Lapile Creek and Caney Bayou, where the land is dotted with distinctive features like Peregeethe Lake and Fishtrap Lake. Human settlement is sparse, centered on the small community of New Union in the west and Prairie Island Landing along the riverbanks. The survey also identifies industry and topography in the wetlands, including an Oil Well near Hogpen Ridge and a Flowing Well to the south. This map provides a detailed view of the river bends and ridges that shaped local navigation and settlement patterns before modern developments altered the floodplains.
