1974 Map of Tyronza
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The Tyronza River winds through this section of the Arkansas delta, a landscape defined by an extensive drainage network including Ditch No 6 and Outlet Ditch No 1. During the mid-1970s, the region was a nexus of rail and road transport, with the St Louis - San Francisco railroad corridor linking the towns of Tyronza, Gilmore, and Turrell. Smaller community centers like Beasley and Deckerville are spaced along the line, serving the surrounding agricultural plains. The map reveals the intricate water management of the Sunken Lands, where features like Dead Timber Lake and Lamb Bayou remain as remnants of the older, wetter terrain. Rural life is anchored by numerous local landmarks such as Mt Zion Ch, Cherry Bean Ch, and New Bethlehem Ch, reflecting the deep-rooted social fabric of Poinsett, Crittenden, and Mississippi counties.
