1940 Map of Red Oak
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Winding Stair Mountain and the surrounding Choctaw Country terrain dominate this survey, which captures the region during a period of transition in the late 1930s. The northern corridor follows the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad through the settlements of Panola and Red Oak, while the southern reaches center on Talihina and the State Sanitorium. The landscape is a network of named ridges like Baker Mountain and Granny Graham Mountain, cut by the winding Fourche Maline river system. Rural community life is visible through a high density of country institutions, including the Dunlap Center Sch, Salonia Sch, and Hulsey Prairie Sch. The southern portion of the map transitions into the Ouachita National Forest, where the topography becomes increasingly complex around Gobblers Knob and the Devils Hollow drainage.
