1969 Map of Parkers Corner

About this map

Two Prairie Bayou winds through the heart of this East Arkansas landscape, defining the transition between the agricultural expanses of Grand Prairie and the wooded lowlands. In the late 1960s, the area around Parkers Corner shows a complex system of water management, evidenced by numerous Reservoirs and Reservoir catchments designed to support the region's rice-growing heritage. The map records several small lakes such as Jarvis Lake, Tyler Lake, and Cooper Lake, which punctuate the drainage basins of Shumaker Branch and Skinners Branch. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of vital community landmarks, including Zion Cem, Ray Cem, and Lutheran Cem, scattered across the townships of Carlisle, Hamilton, and Tyler. These features provide a look at the rural social geography of the Lonoke and Prairie County border before modern industrial farming further consolidated the land.
