1970 Map of Robinson

About this map

Ozark National Forest lands dominate the southwestern portion of this survey, where the Illinois River cuts through the topography near the Benton and Washington County line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Osage Creek and its many tributaries, including Lick Branch and Wildcat Creek. This region of Northwest Arkansas shows a well-established network of rural institutions, such as Rocks Comfort Ch, Pleasant Hill Ch, and the University of Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station. Small communities like Robinson, Harmon, and the western edge of Tontitown serve as focal points for the surrounding agricultural tracts. Local history is preserved in sites like Yell Cem and the Community Hall near Harmon Ch, illustrating the social and religious infrastructure of these upland settlements during the mid-to-late twentieth century.
