1935 Map of Varner

USGS Topo · Published 1938

About this map

The Arkansas River dominates this mid-1930s landscape, its complex meanders creating landforms like Cooper Island and Sample Island. The river’s influence is seen in the extensive system of levees and the Douglas Cut-Off, reflecting the ongoing efforts of the Corps of Engineers to manage the flood-prone bottomlands. This era in Lincoln and Jefferson Counties is marked by a massive institutional presence, specifically the numerous state penal facilities such as State Penal Farm No 5 and State Penal Farm No 3 located along the river bends.
