1966 Map of Point Cedar

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

De Gray Lake dominates the southern landscape of this 1960s survey, representing a significant transformation of the Caddo River valley. The map documents the area during a period of transition, showing the newly formed reservoir alongside established rural communities like Point Cedar and Beaton. The terrain is defined by the east-west ridges of Trap Mountain and the Cedar Mountains, which hem in the agricultural reaches of Amity Valley. Genealogists will find several rural spiritual hubs recorded, including Mazarn Chapel, Wesleyan Chapel, and Philippi Ch. The presence of a Gaging Station and the Snouse Ford Public Use Area reflects the river's management and the growing importance of water-based recreation in the mid-20th century. Scattered homesteads and small family-named churches throughout the Henderson and Alpine townships provide a detailed look at the settlement patterns of Hot Spring and Clark Counties before further development.
