1964 Map of Walker

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Des Arc Bayou and its numerous tributaries, including Cypress Bayou and Dogwood Creek, dominate the bottomlands of this 1964 survey. The landscape transitions from the dense drainage networks of the central bayous to the agricultural clearances near Griffithville and Walker. Local history is anchored by rural institutions like Dogwood Ch, Pleasant Ridge Sch, and several family cemeteries that survived the era's changing land use. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade in the northeast quadrant, running parallel to the edge of the Dogwood area, points to a shift in the local transportation network as older rail infrastructure gave way to the system of local roads and Jeep Trails that now navigate the wetlands and timber. The map also documents the boundary where White County and Prairie County meet along the southern reaches of the bayou.
