1964 Map of Poyen

About this map

Poyen serves as the central hub of this mid-1960s survey, situated where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad intersects the local road network. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of Big Creek, Francois Creek, and their numerous tributaries like Thunder Branch and Buck Branch, which drain the timbered terrain along the border of Hot Spring and Grant Counties. This era shows a community rooted in local institutions, evidenced by the presence of the Big Creek Ch and Clear Creek Ch, alongside several burial grounds such as Lutheran Cem and Cunningham Cem. Industrial activity is visible through scattered Sandpit and Gravel Pit operations, while the Malvern Country Club indicates the development of recreational spaces near the western edge of the quadrangle.
