1956 Map of Russellville
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The Arkansas River carves a central valley through this mid-century landscape, separating the high peaks of the Boston Mountains to the north from the ridges of the Ouachita Mountains to the south. This 1956 survey records the region just as major hydrological changes were taking shape, showing the Greers Ferry Reservoir and Lake Dardanelle alongside established works like Nimrod Lake and Blue Mountain Lake. The infrastructure of the river-and-rail economy is evident, with the Missouri Pacific Railroad and Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad providing vital transport links between the river towns and the interior.
