1964 Map of Rob Roy

About this map

St Louis Southwestern rails traverse this delta landscape, connecting small settlements like Haywood and Rob Roy near the winding course of the Arkansas River. The area is defined by complex water management, where the Boyd Point Cutoff and an extensive network of levee systems protect agricultural lands in Pastoria, Vaugine, and Victoria. Local social life in the 1960s is anchored by numerous country churches and cemeteries, such as St Marys Ch and the Washington Cem, many of which sit nestled in the loops of Plum Bayou.
