1961 Map of Scranton

About this map

Scranton serves as a focal point in Logan County, situated north of the prominent ridge lines that define this Arkansas landscape. The settlement pattern follows the contours of Prairie View Mountain and Sand Ridge, with numerous family and community landmarks such as Blair Cem, Saint Meinrads Cem, and Stony Point Cem dotting the countryside. Evidence of early infrastructure is clear in the Old Railroad Grade passing through Scranton, signaling the era's transport priorities before modern highway expansion.
