1982 Map of Pettus

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Bakers Bayou and Meto Bayou dominate this landscape in Lonoke County, defining a region where water management and agriculture are deeply intertwined. The map reveals an extensive network of fish farms and irrigation features, including numerous siphons and an unnamed ditch system that supports the local economy. The settlement of Pettus serves as a central point, flanked by smaller communities like Oldham. This 1980s landscape is characterized by its transition from the natural drainage of Brushy Slough and Crooked Creek to a highly engineered agricultural environment. Several rural spiritual and commemorative sites are preserved here, including Green Olive Cem, Sullivan Cem, and Weedon Cem, alongside various country churches such as New Zion Ch and Bishops Chapel, providing valuable touchpoints for genealogists and local historians studying the rural Arkansas delta.
