1956 Map of Whitmore

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The St Francis River meanders through the heart of this mid-1950s landscape, defining the boundaries and economic life of St. Francis and Cross counties. The river's dramatic bends, including Gray Bend and Merriman Bend, frame a floodplain dotted with named oxbows like Kiechley Lake and Horseshoe Lake. The survey highlights a highly developed network of rural communities and social institutions, with Wittsburg and Madison serving as focal points. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting numerous small congregations and burial grounds such as Shiloh Ch & Cem and Harris Chapel Ch & Cem.
